Notes for Johann Hans (Hanß) Jacob Seeger
Baptism sponsors were Hans Jacob Schöttlein and his wife, Christina.
Further insight into Jacob Seeger, Schultheiß, Zumweiler, was abstracted from the “Dorf und Fleckenbuch der Gemeinde Überberg vom Jahr 1758” (Abstracted from Ortssippenbuch der Pfarrei Altensteigdorf.), also kept together with the churchbooks in the Landeskirchenarchiv, Stuttgart. This booklet provides a written designation of the villages Zumweiler, Heselbronn and Lengenloch and all the rules and rights the residents had to regard. Prior to 1758, the ‘rules’ had been common, unwritten knowledge for centuries; in 1758, the ‘rules’ were revised and formally written. Abstracted from this record:
- On page 5 Jacob Seeger is mentioned to be the Schultheiß (mayor) in Zumweiler.
- From page 25 onwards, rights and duties for using the ways and water facilities in the village are described. Each head of the family in the village is mentioned. Point 1 states Georg Weisser, now Johann Jacob Seeger, Schultheiß; Johann Jacob Seeger’s first mother-in-law was Elisabeth Weisser, her father was Johann Georg Weisser. This information proves that Jacob Seeger moved into the house of his first wife Anna Stoll and that Anna’s father, Jacob Stoll had also moved into the house of his wife Elisabeth Weisser. Although Johann Georg Weisser had died already on March 9, 1714, ways-and water-regulations were still registered at his name. Now in 1758 the properties were revised and henceforth Jacob Seeger acted in his own name as head of household.
- Jacob Seeger Jacob Seeger was Schultheiß in the dominion of Hochdorf Gültlingen. On page 139 we find the name of the Junker Balthasar von Gültlingen. The residents in these 3 villages had to sign a contract with him specifying their statute-labour they had to perform
