I reenact the medieval period fram 1375 - 1425, Scandinavia. I am
looking for a merchant from The Hanseatic Trading League. I want to
find a person that I can "wake up from the dead" for a few weeks
every year. That is why I need as much info about him as possible;
name, origin, household, life and family. I am interested in
anything in order to get his awakening started.
Now I wonder if any of you ever have come asross such a person? It
could be in connection with anything else but maybe someone out
there has something that he or she could hand over to me?
Two family chronicles of Hanseatic merchants survive. Try
Googling for Jakob Lubbe:

The other chronicle is by Franz Wessel, mayor of Stralsund:

If these are a bit late for you, there are the letters of the
Veckinchusen brothers:
