Ludwig von Bieren
Ludwig von Bieren (born June 24, 1604 in Cara , † September 21, 1672 in Halberstadt ) was a German canon , senior and cellarius of the noble monastery of Halberstadt and heir to Cara.
Life
Ludwig came from the noble family von Bieren (today's spelling Byern ) and was the son of the heir of Karow (then called "Cara" or "Chara"), Heinrich von Bieren and his wife Elisabeth, born von Göhren from the Kemnitz family. His grandfather Marten von Bieren and his siblings were the landowners in Karow at the latest by 1557, while his great-grandfather Jochen von Bieren was the heir to Tucheim and Wülpen .
When Ludwig von Bieren was around the age of 12, his parents sent him to school in Quedlinburg , where he was taught for four years. Due to an illness he had to go back to his parents' property.
In the year of the Reformation anniversary in 1617, his cousin Joachim Ernst von Bieren, who was canon and sub-senior in Halberstadt at the time, gave him a canon at the cathedral there. In order to take up this position, it was necessary to study theology at the University of Wittenberg, which he completed between 1626 and 1628. By issuing the edict of restitution of 1629, he lost the canon position in Halberstadt. He went back to his parents and stayed for some time with his father's brother, who was in charge of the Kommende Buro at the time.
In 1635 he was able to return to Halberstadt together with other Protestant canons. After the death of the previous cathedral dean and cellarius, Jobst Ludolf von Stedern, he was appointed cellarius in 1661. In 1668 he was also appointed senior.
He died after a short sick leave, where he was also supported by Dr. Haberstroh from Wernigerode received medical care on September 21 and was buried on November 19, 1672 in Halberstadt Cathedral. At the funeral the Halberstadt deacon Peter Henning gave the funeral sermon, which was given to print by Johann Erasmus Hynitzsch in Halberstadt.
family
Ludwig von Bieren initially lived as a single person for over 40 years. After getting to know and love Anna, the widow of Halberstadt canon Friedrich von und zu Schachten , he married this woman from the Wurmb aristocratic family . The wedding took place on February 12, 1646 in Halberstadt.
Ludwig Wurmb on Großfurra , Sundhausen and Bielen, became the brother-in-law of Ludwig von Bieren. His sister Anna asserted claims for the inheritance of the deceased father Levin Wurmb and the two agreed in 1636 that the latter should receive the manor in Sundhausen from the father's estate, which the father had bought from Ludolf von Sundhausen during his lifetime. The Sundhausen manor was thus brought into the marriage in 1646. Since the place was a bit difficult to reach from the northern Harz, Ludwig von Bieren was happy when he was able to sell this manor on December 3, 1655 in the imperial city of Nordhausen for 6,000 Reichstaler to the Walkenried bailiff Dietrich Wagner . The payment of the first half of the purchase price was agreed on January 1, 1656, but the payment of the second half was delayed by many years.
Ludwig von Bieren's wife Anna brought three sons from her first marriage into the marriage. Anna and the three sons Dietrich Levin von und zu Schachten, Rittmeister in the service of the Elector of Brandenburg, Christoph Heinrich von und zu Schachten, captainleutnant on horseback in the Dutch and West Frisian army, as well as Werner von und zu Schachten, lieutenant from Princely Brunswick, survived him on horseback.
