  • Notes 
    • From Wilbur Hanson Kalb
      He’s Ambrosius Dietz!  An Evangelical Lutheran Bürger and Tuchscherer [ citizen and cloth cutter ] of Hildburghausen, he ( 1578 – 1662 ) was the son of Alexander Dietz and his wife Barbara Zink and the brother of Wolfgang Dietz, both of Königsberg in Bayern, 24.8 miles in the southwest.  When he was born, his birthplace belonged to the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar but, when he died, he was buried in Coburg in the Duchy of Saxe-Altenburg.  He was also the husband of Martha Habermann ( 1587 – 1646 ), a native of Hildburghausen, and the father of two girls.  In January 1620, he was hauled before the City Council of Hildburghausen on the charge of coin fraud and his case went all the way to the authorities of the Duchy of Coburg.  Apparently he beat the rap because, in June 1627, he came back to the City Council of Hildburghausen to ask  for compensation after Colonel Schönberg’s Imperial soldiers stole his horses.  It took him five years to get his money.
