Hans DELLINGER

The record of his marriage in 1659 in Hochstad states "bei Dillingen,
Bayern" meaning with a family in Dillingen. Ortssippenbuch,
Oberacker, 1970 has parenthetical note ("Hochstattten unter dem Grafer
Fucker"). Grafen means Count and Fucker or Fugger was a wealthy
family that financed the Catholic side of the Counter Reformation.
Apparently Hochstadt was under the control or rule of the Count
Fugger.
The Fuggers of Augsburg were one of the most influential
banking-houses of the 15th century. Emperor Maximiliam I (1493-1519)
of the Hapsburg Dynasty as well as several of the Popes had loans from
the Fuggers, whose wealth was acquired from exploitation of the German
silver mines. The youngest of three sons of Hans Fugger, Jacbo, d.
1469 founded the trading company of Fugger and his three sons; Ulrich,
Georg and Jacob, Jr. carried on the business, intermarried married
with nobility and in 1473, received a patent of nobility from Emperor
Frederick III.
Probably the village residents of Dillingen were required to practice
the Catholic region. Since Oberacker has Protestant Church records
beginning in 1567 and apparently no Catholic records it is reasonable
to assume that the early Dellinger families of Oberacker were
Protestant.
It is to be noted that Martin Luther had posted his 95 Theses against
indulgences granted by the Catholic Church on the castle church door
in Wittenberg in 1517.

Hans married Agnes KATTERMAN on 02 Jan 1659 in Hochstadt, Bavaria, Germany. Agnes was born on 20 Aug 1634. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

The earliest Dellinger in the records of this family lineage.
Information on his descendants in Ortssippenbuch, Oberacker, Landkreis
Bruchsal in Baden, published 1970, Lahr, Baden. This is a Village
Family Compilation by Rudolf and Margarete Herzer of Freiburg and
Gustav Mayer of Oberacker. A copy is the Church of Latter Day Saints
Library, Salt Lake City (LDS microfilm # 1440784). This reference
also lists a Niclaus Dellinger, d. 29 Oct 1623 in Oberacker, so the
Dellinger presence there goes back at least to 1623 and possibly much
earlier.
