| Biography |
Peter Rosen
| Peter was his commonly used name. Church documents refer to him in the latin form of Petrus. Not very much is known of the origins of Peter other than he was married in Aldenhoven and probably lived there after his marriage and that he died there. He was probably unskilled. He was of the Roman Catholic faith. There are a few other Rosen's listed in the Aldenhoven church registers and as far away as Ahrweiler and Altenahr (over 100km south-west) but no positive connection with this Peter has yet been made. |
Maria Sibylla Rinck
| Maria Sibylla was baptised on 26 October 1731 at St Martinus Roman Catholic Church in Aldenhoven. Her parents were Jacobi Rinck and Joanna Malmelthier. Her godparents were Clement Malmethier and ?[2,9]. |

from Maria Sibylla Rinck's death certificate
|
A review
of the residents
of Aldenhoven in 1799 mentions Peter and Maria
Sibylla[4]. Peter had died by this time and Maria Sibylla was living in
poor economic circumstances at Marktfestestrasse 26. Her occupation was
stated as Day
Labourer (Tagelöhnerin).
Living in the
same house was her daughter, Maria/Anna
Elisabeth, and 13 year old
son,
Johannes Arnold Lövenich.
Also living in the same house were Ludwig Lövenich and his wife Magdalena Moll. Ludwig may have been the head of the house. Ludwig may have been an uncle or older brother of Josef. |
From Aldenhoven Im Jahre 1799, Willi Doven & Gunter Bers, 1997
There are no original houses remaining in the Marktfestestrasse now. All appear to have been re-built since 1945[11].
