Notes |
- From Richard Davis: 'He was living with his wife and son Michael in the household of his brother Joseph in 1654 at Zweierhof [farm] in W‰denswil. His brother Ulrich was single and living with Joseph also. Hans Heinrich was called an Anabaptist when he was living at W‰denswil in 1670 with his wife, four children and his brother Joseph and Joseph's wife Anna Hiestand. ... In 1678 the W‰denswil church minister wrote that Heinrich was "a Wiedert‰ufer" [anabaptist] and that he secretly left the village in January 1673 taking his son Joseph with him to the Pfalz. He was in the Ibersheim area in the Pfalz by 1680 as that is about the time his son Michael married K¸ngold Hiestand of Ibersheim. Heinrich was listed as a Mennonite and living at Ibersheim in the Pfalz in 1685 with six children in his household in the Mennonite census. His oldest son Michael had died in about 1684 at Mettenheim near Ibersheim so apparently Hans Heinrich had somebody's other children living with him in 1685, probably his grandchildren. ... In 1687 the minister wrote that Hans Heinrich had been a member of the Reformed Church and converted to the Anabaptist religion and left secretly.... The minister tried to talk the Reiffs into returning but only Hans Heinrich's brother Joseph returned.'
- He is buried Springfield.
