Notes |
- Claus Koger, son of Dietrich, married Maria Kuttler, daughter of Jose Kuttler (who is described in the records as butcher, inn-keeper, and Orphan-judge in Auggen), on November 20, 1665. Maria, who had been born on Mayday of 1646, was nineteen.
Claus and Maria had six children; Dietrich and Joss, twins, born November 8, 1666; Maria, born July 17, 1669; Claus, born August 9, 1671; Joss, born August 8, 1674, and named after his brother who had died an infant on May 18, 1667; and Christoph, born December 10, 1678.
A brief entry on page 41 of the Old Koger Family Book at Auggen states about Claus Koger;
"Born at Eastern (sic) 1637, was butcher, married 20 November 1665 Maria Kuttlerin at Auggen and had six children with her, he died, falling from nut tree, 14 September 1679."
From this, we learn both his occupation, butcher, and his manner of death, in a fall from a tree, at the age of 42.
Dietrich Koger, his father, outlived him, dying nine years later, on November 27, 1688.
