Ackermann (Did Not Go)*
The marriage of Johannes Ackermann from Fulda & Eva Catharina [sic] Heel from Fulda is recorded in the parish register of the Lutheran Church in Büdingen on 13 May 1766. They are recorded there as colonists going to Russia, however, they did not actually go to Russia. They returned to Fulda where they were "remarried" on 1 February 1767 by the Catholic priest because, as Catholics, their marriage in the Lutheran Church in Büdingen was considered to have been illegitimate. The entry in the parish register of the Catholic Cathedral in Fulda reads:
