           The Weitkamp family in both the Netherlands and the United States believe it is more probable that she was the daughter of Johann Hermann Fiegenbaum and Catharina Elisabeth Grotholtmann, as shown here.

    •      At the time of their marriage, Johann was 24 years, 4 months and 11 days old; Catharina was 31 years 9 months and 3 days old.
           At the time of the births of each of their children, the father and mother were the following ages, respectively: Hermann Heinrich, 25 years, 4 days and 29 days & 32 years, 9 months and 21 days; Johann Henrich, 27 years and 8 months & 35 years and 22 days; Cord, 30 years, 10 months and 15 days & 38 years, 3 months and 7 days; Anna Elisabeth, 34 years, 2 months and 7 days & 41 years, 7 months and 9 days; Anna Elsabein, 38 years, 4 months and 13 days & 45 years, 9 months and 5 days.
           Lieselotte (Freese) Fiegenbaum, of Ladbergen, surmises that Catherina Elisabeth Grotholtmann was a sister to Anna Elsabein Grotholtmann (1746-1818), who married Hermann Wilhelm Fiegenbaum (1745-1813) on 5 August 1770.

    2. [S104] Personal communication, from H. Wilhelm Weitkamp, the Netherlands, on 22 October 2007 to J. Mark Fiegenbaum via email.
      Branches of Wilhelm Weitkamp's family in both the Netherlands and the United States believe that Anna Elisabeth Fiegenbaum (born 7 April 1775) is not the daughter of Hermann Wilhelm Fiegenbaum (1745-1813) and Anna Elsabein Grotholtmann (1746-1818), as she had been represented in my database.
           The Weitkamp family believes that Anna Elisabeth Fiegenbaum is probably the daughter of Johann Hermann Fiegenbaum (1739-1796) and Catharina Elisabeth Grotholtmann (1731-1816). According to their research, she was born after the death of a sister of the same name, Anna Elisabeth (20 June 1773-9 August 1774) and was named for that sister, a practice common at that time.
           Wilhelm also pointed out that the name of Anna Elisabeth's husband was not Johann Weinrich Weitkamp, as I had it, but Johann Wilhelm Heinrich Weidkamp. In a follow-up email (30 November 2007), Wilhelm noted that the family name has been spelled a number of ways over time: Weitkamp, Weidkamp, Wietkamp.
