The second familiarity I found (or knew to find) in this book was the name of one of the 4 delegates to the Congress of Westphalen (not in Münster bot in Osnabrück): Nicolaus Christoph Mü/u/ild(e)ner (well, it IS the 17th century, so no-one really knew how to write his or her name correctly or rather there was not yet a register with the rightname of the individual set-up). The line of his descendants probably did not die out completely, there are still some people in the Hannover area of Germany whom I suspect to descent of(or is it from?) him. Most of the descending lines however as far as I have been able to research, died out (1). Anyway, he is mentioned about 4-6 times in Bettenhäuser. He replaced one of the originale delegates, who was injured in a fall. I have not come yet to the description of NCM's heroic acts, but I will keep you posted.
(1) to prevent further "pollution" in this blog I will just state here that I am preparing a publication on the ancestors and descendants of Nikolaus Christoph Müldner.
