Johann Kruse (councilor)
Johann Kruse (* in Boizenburg ; † December 4, 1598 in Lübeck ) was a merchant and councilor of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck.
The merchant Johann Kruse was elected to the Lübeck council in 1588 and must have been of advanced age at that time. Fehling notes in the Lübeck Council Line that he no longer took part in the council business in his last years.
Johann Kruse was married to a sister of the Lübeck councilor Gerhard Grentzin and lived in the house at Große Petersgrube 23 in Lübeck. Grentzin lived in the neighboring house, Große Petersgrube 21. Kruse was buried in Lübeck's Marienkirche , where his coat of arms grave slab from 1595 is documented but is currently undetectable.
