| Ruff Rudolfus Wenger Esq. born abt 1510 (see P 32) One of the first Wenger's of distinction from whom the remainder of our family descends was mayor of his village which we believe was Wattenwil. Fromlater parish records at Thurnen and from Blauen Hefte (Blue Books) in the Archives of Bern, we learn that he was probably born about 1510. Mayor Wenger had a son, Hans Wenger, who was born about 1530. This son, Hans Wenger, and his wife, Dichtle (Benedicta) Wenger (maiden name), christened their fourth son Christian Wenger on March 19, 1559, in the Church at Thurnen. (Th. I.p. 58) The record of that baptism states that this Hans Wenger, the father of Christian, was "des Ammann Sohn" or "son of the Mayor." This Swiss dialetic term "Ammann" freely translated means "first in rank in civil authority." Depending upon usage, it could mean Lord Mayor, Ensign, Chairman, Bailiff, Mayor, Baron, Magistrate, Governor, etc. We believe that early English interpretation dictates the term "Mayor" probably would be the correct tran- slation. Hence, we conclude that Hans Wenger representing the sixth generation was a son of the Mayor of his village. As a result of a chain of circumstantial evidence, we believe that the Mayor was Ruff (Rudolfus) Wenger. Here we recite the facts as reported in Blauen Hefte and Stift DOC. BUSH III 518. The Castle of Burgistein near Thurnen and Wattenwill in the 14th and 15 Centuries was under thedominion of the von Muleren family. Rudolf von Muleren was councilor of Bern in 1352. Sir Urban von Muleren, his grandson, was councilor in Bern in 1455 and was considered one of the wealthiest men in the State of Bern. Sir Urban was Bailiff at Aarwangen in 1456 and at Lenzbury in 1465. After the victory at Murten in 1476 in the war with the Duke of Burgundy, he became bailiff of the latter community. See Document. page 35 gives names of sons.and continues with five generations. |
