DOROTHEA BERLICH (1577 \u2013 1637) AND THE KIRMS FAMILY
The Kirms family is connected to the main trunk of this family history website via Dorothea Berlich. She was the daughter of Nikolaus Berlich and Maria Kodritzsch<\/a> and hence the sister of the Three Loeck Sisters Nth great grandfather Georg Peter Berlich, the aunt of Burchard Berlich, and the great aunt of Susanna (Berlich) Struve<\/a>. On 12 January 1599 Dorothea Berlich married Johann Kirmers \/ Kirms (1561 – 1624).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johann and Dorothea (Berlich) Kirms had a son Joachim (1614 -1692) who married Margarethe Lind and they had a son Joachim (1668 -1719). It was this son who probably bought the Kirms Haus at Jakobstra\u00dfe 10 in Weimar (see below). In turn Joachim had a son Joachim Caspar (*1698 in Weimar, \u2020 1770 ibid.). He married Friederike Maria Rosine Hagen (1723-1809) and they had a son Franz (1750 – 1826), a friend of Goethe’s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, an illustration from Joachim Caspar\u2019s Stammbuch. The book also included three autographs by two members of the Struve family: Friedrich Gottlieb Struve (the Three Loeck Sisters’ Nth great grandfather) and Burchard Gotthelf Struve, as well as Christian Wildvogel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kirms house in Weimar, now a museum, contains many family portraits. In 1672 the house belonged to Friedrich Happe the ducal cashier. In 1701, Johann Joachim Kirms (1668 – 1719) acquired it for 213 thalers. The financial means probably come from the father, a master butcher. His son Joachim Caspar Kirms (1698-1770) inherited the property in 1751.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
