Remarks

  1. Gottfried Wentz : The Diocese of Havelberg. gives the year of death as 1520. Gatz: The Bishops of the Holy Roman Empire 1488 to 1648. gives 1501–1520 as the term of office, but erroneously gives 1512 as the year of death. This wrong year of death is given with reference to Gatz as a source, also in the NDB or the German biography and with reference to the NDB in the GND and VIAF dataset.
