Article by Carl Voß
Translation my Marcus Prüssing

The list contains besides the "Pastoren, Archidiaconen and  Diaconen" also some of the "Cantoren" because in former times the have also been studied theologians. Cantor was the first step to become Pastor. As far as possible together with mere names come some relevant family dates.
