Peter
de Boor * ca. 1680 - † after 1723 Fuller |
He
was a fuller, just like his father, Heinrich. That was a trade common in
the Netherlands and in Northern France. The fulling mill in Hanau was founded
in 1678. The mill was used to remove, with the aid of a certain clay called
`Walkerde', oils from woollen cloth, making it denser. He was still alive in 1723 when his youngest daughter died at the age of eight, and, according to the Marriage Book of the Church of St. Mary, he married, as Peter Dubor, on 12.02.1700 the maiden Johanna Maria Gruber. The father-in-law, a weaver of linen and burgher of the Altstadt Hanau, Michael Gruber, had died already in 1699. His own father, Heinrich Dubor, also was dead. In the Baptism Book of the Church of St. Mary, Peter and his two sons appear with a slightly different last name: Andreas Debohr who later became a fuller, too, and Isaak Debor who later learned a different trade. The fulling mill in the Haingasse is sold on 27.08.1706 to the fuller Peter Deboor and his wife Johanna Maria, and is, five years later, sold at auction because of debts. It is noted in the protocol for this sale that a certain Peter Deboir makes the highest bid but does not get the nod. The new owner mentions a certain Peter Tepor. The next buyer complains on 04.01.1721 about Debohr who has left the fulling mill taking along an iron stove and leaving various destroyed items behind. In an undated entry, the next owner, Nicolaus Scherer, complains about Peter de Bor's daughter, "so bey ihrer Großmutter hier in der Altstadt sitzet, in beiden Städten aus- und ab- und sogar denen Tuchmachern in die Häuser gehet und alles zusammen aus der Stadt hinausschleppt, wodurch gnädigster Hoher Herrschaft das Lochgeld ab und mir und den Meinigen aber die Nahrung platterdings gäntzlich entgehet" (who lives with her grandmother in the old part of town, but freely moves about in all parts of town and even enters the houses of the cloth makers and carries it all out of town, whereby the 'Loch'-geld is lost to the high lords while the very food is taken from me and mine). There is no entry for him in the Book of the Dead of that church, and that leads to the supposition that Peter, after the death of his youngest daughter, perhaps left Hanau and moved in with his son Andreas in Stockstadt or else moved to his son Isaac in Hamburg, and died there. |
