Life

Origin and family

Johann Asbeck Torck came from the Westphalian noble family Torck , from which numerous imperial court officials, knights, noble boys and officials emerged in the Middle Ages. He was the son of Rotger Torck zu Asbeck and his wife Anna von Asbeck. In 1596 he and his brother Johann received the Lengerich Castle as a fief. Johann, canon in Münster from 1577 to 1613, took over the castle in 1596.

Act

Johann was presented by Matthias Nagel for the cathedral priest of Kuno von Winnenberg, who had waived . On April 16, 1582 he came into their possession. The later canon Nikolaus von Zersen asked the cathedral chapter on June 30, 1597 not to allow the waiver intended by Torck, because both were in a dispute over the free preamble of the late canon Dietrich von Merveldt. Torck resigned on December 17, 1597. The prebend went to Johann von Hüchtebrock . Johann married Sibilla von Schedelich. The marriage brought the children Agnes, Elisabeth, married to Wilhelm Friedrich von Rhede (Canon), Rotger Dietrich, married to Anna von Schencking (her son Johann Rotger was vicar general in Münster) and Sybilla, married to Melchior von Büren (her daughter Elisabeth Wilhelmina von Büren was the successor of the abbess Anna Sophia Torck , who came from Johann's second marriage to Elisabeth von Eyll).
