Notes:

11. Cordula was born in Coburg, Germany on the first month after Palmarum in 1557 (12 Apr 1557). * Coburg Mo after Palmarum (12,4.) 1557 (Patin: S. von Bamberg)
Cordula married Magister (Masters Degree) Johann Erhard von Berg (Amberg, Montanus) in either Coburg or Hildburghausen, Germany on 26 Nov 1582. Johann Erhard was born in Hildburghausen in 1558 and died in Heldburg on 23 Jul 1605. He was a Pastor while living in Waltershausen, Germany and a Superintendent while living in Heldburg, Germany.

I found this information about the Montanus family in a 1897 book.  This family had several letters preserved in the library and archives of the Gotha Gymnasium ( Gothae Gymnasialbibliothek ) so it was in a paper that was presented by the Oberlehrer [ Headteacher ] Dr Max [ Maximilian Carl ] Schneider ( 1858 – 1920, lifelong resident of Gotha ) on 9 April 1897 as the main part of the program for the festivities at the Ducal Gymnasium Ernestium in Gotha.  The title is “Die Gelehrtenbriefe der Gothae Gymnasialbibliothek aus dem XVI. und XVII. Jahrhundert [ The Letters of the Scholars at the Library of the Gotha Gymnasium from the 16th and 17th Centuries ]”.  I did look for Michael Buchenröder, the Mörlins and the Thomæs but I didn’t find any of them in the paper.  However, I did find “Sebaldus Krugk” of Coburg.   From page 16 :
