Dear Medieval Genealogy list,
an anyone tell me about professions in 16th century Baden-Württemberg? One of
y ancestors, Antonius Fleiner, was supposedly a Küchenmeister in 1533. I just
ind it so odd that a master chef was a valid profession at that time. The text
in German), Flyner - Fliner - Fleiner by Else Rath-Horing, did not state that
e was employed by a duke or prince, but he later was a hospital administrator
nd then a mayor (Bürgermeister). He was also a vogt, which doesn't translate -
oes anyone know if this means bailiff or reeve?
Thank you, once again, for your expertise!
incerely,
drienne Boaz
