Strubin, ancestor of Ballmers
 |
| Harold & Ilah's 55th |
Hi Jane, I hope spring finds you well. I have been remiss is keeping up with Ballmer data. The attached is a revision of one of the lines that branch off of the Ballmers. I hope I have included enough data so that you can place it. If not, let me know. The revision comes about as a re-look of the data from several sources. Ray Green, Harold Kwast, and I retranslated a couple of sources, and had to decide which was the most reliable. Problems arise from the Swiss German dialect used, and terms no longer in use. I'll attach a version of the translation and you can see what I mean. As I was looking through my Ballmer file, noticed other things you might like to see. At any rate, we were trying for better accuracy and hope we have achieved it. Harold has since died. He was a great source of knowledge and family lore. His wife, Ilah, is our actual cousin.

The origin of the citizen-family Strübin of Liestal
From D K Gauß Pastor
It is notable that the members of the family Strübin,
barely, that it had settled in Liestal, in the small town an important role it
played that mayor became the one, Heinrich, the sons the alters, Hans, with
names like << the noble prince >> and << mighty man >>
was distinguished. That would be
completely incomprehensible, if the Strübin, like the citizen-book of Liestal
declares, from the Baden village Herthen would have immigrated. Differently however the matter stands if the
Strübins come from high-respectable family of Basel.
At the beginning of the 18 century, the pastor Wilhelm
Strübin of Bubbendorf has, 1667 - 1726, himself with the origin of his family
employs and lays down the result of his investigations in writing. He believed to know that come the first
Strübin of Solothurn in the year 1381 after Liestal, 1401 Heinrich Strübin is
original forebear born, 1424 his eldest son Hans, whom another has followed
1431, born. About the latter, he tells
that he has become captain and citizens to Solothurn afterwards. However no belief is these information to
give. Because from the 1401 born
original forebear Heinrich Strübin writes he: he helped 1477 << as
campaign-masters vnder the colonel of Eptingen with the confederates the battle bey
Nancy in Lorraine against Hertzog Carolum the naughty of Burgundy wins, nöthen
rescued the colonel of Eptingen from death, that also him the because of his
daughter to the woman given, from which that Dorff Ziffens come also to him, vnd erbeuttete
the gemelten
Hertzogs guilder of bowels, still to show which to generation in vnserm, vnd
Hertzog Carll betittelt
becomes. >> that is not history but pure fiction. If it would not be like this, then Strübin
have to become a mayor at 98 years and 117 years old has become. Only the names are right in this report.
Another presentation from the same period names as woman of
the mayor Emma Schelly. This name would
point to Basel into a family, that has put also members of the council. The citizen-book offers one, names, Anna
Gsell, the observation change merited, because actually a daughter of the mayor
the name Anna Trägt. Something certain
cannot be said. Certainly inaccurate is
that become Strübin 1496 mayors, that he has had a son Peter, the captain to
Solothurn been; maybe, this note refers on the brother of the mayor or on one
of his great-sons, that 1542 born sons Chrispians, Peter. However the first has died in Basel, and the
latter has come scarcely permanent after Solothurn. Inaccurate is more distant that the son of
the mayor, Hans, who has been father of Michael and Heinrich, and there mayor
still the daughters Appolonia, Brigide and Margreth, more final with a Hans of
Ulm, a drayman from Swabia marries, has had.
Because all these claims which that lists all heirs stands in the
contradiction with the document of the 13 March 1535, but from these children
nothing knows the citizen-book of Liestal names as original leap-like home of
the Strübin Herthen
in the Baden. Alone also that is a mere
conjecture, that doesn't have lasted itself.
All these of late traditions are to be let therefore fall to extract the
documentary sources against it to installment however, that actually give a
certain answer in the most important thing for the question after the origin of
the citizen-family Strübin.
On the 20 May 1416, squire bought Hans Strübin of
Wattweiler, round Sennheim in the Alsace, the cloth-man and citizens and Gerd
of Altdorf, his first wife, that Hans to the Sträblin at the available-road No.
27 to Basel. Certainly emerges from it
that Hans Strübin, from the Alsace descendant, citizen to Basel became. In accordance with his occupation, he stepped
into the elegant guild to the key, the guild of the merchants, cloth-shearers
and cloth-dealers an in the oldest guild-book appears Hans Strübli for the year
1441 as old Sechser. So since the records don't go back further,
can certainly only be presumed that Strübli was in the year 1440 of new Sechser;
it is however very probably possible that he has been appointed into this
office already earlier. It is certain
that he has remained in this position up to his death.
In the for Basel so importance-desires years 1444 Hans
Strübli was a captain. Under their
captain Henmann Sevogel, man to Wildenstein, the Waindenburger personnel was
pulled after St Jacob, about with the confederates the Heldentod, to die. Castle and city Waldenburg were therefore
bare. In badly faithless manner,
Solothurn looked for itself the palace at that time to take hold. Henmann Offenburgs and Matthis Eberler had
been caused even by Solothurn, after they that << pitiful evil Mär
>> from the battle with St Jacob had heard. Offenburg had believed, that his son Peter is
also fallen, Waldenburg found him however healthy in the castle. As he came down on the following day in the
town ettes, he was warned, he should go on the castle again since he would like
to die otherwise. Offenburg went with
Matthis Eberler, the constable Heinrich of Uetingen, the captain Hans Strübli
and master Oberli, the table-maker, in the Brodtbecken Herberg. Barely they were there, so came the
Solothurner with skewers and Helebarien and pushed open the door. Offenburgs and Mathis Eberler exited. The Solothurners put them the skewers on the
hearts and demanded, that the castle would hand over them, they had to
otherwise would die. Offenburg answered,
before he opened the castle against his honor them, they had to would kill him
first. , To do it ware only about the
brat however. And if he already dead
ware, so they would not have the castle however. Likewise, also Hans Strüblin and the
remaining spoke. The Solothurner intent
failed this because of the allegiance men bravely.
In June 1445, Hans Strübin became a guild-master to the key
and with it at the same time also member of the council. In the following year, he was admittedly
ousted as guild-masters again, he sat 1452 about it - 1454 and 1455/56 again in
the council. In the year 1464, he was a keeper the << alms enet Ryns
>>. Strübin had come to bigger fortune.
He had himself/itself the Zerkindenhof, also Hagendornshof on the Petersberg,
Nadelbergs No 10, acquired. On the 27
May 1465, he bequeaths it to his wife.
For the last time, Hans Strüblin is mentioned 1469 as Sechser
of the guild. In the following year, he
is other replaced with one. Hans Strübin
has therefore died 1469/1470. His widow
is mentioned on the 16 September 1472.
From his children sin duns known: Heinrich, Hans, Peter Leonhard and
Niklauses. Leonhard settled in Sept with
Hirsingen
in the circle Altkirch
in the Alsace, therefore withdrew into the old homeland of his father. His daughter Enneli lost her husband Burkhart
Götschin early, married Heinrich Rudi of low-Sept however soon again and gave
at the 2 April 1500 at the construction of the high pen (minster) of Basel, d h at
the church of the community, in which your father grown up, wr, 35
guilders and transferred him further 165 guilders of main-estate, that you had
paid interest on the council of Basel with 4% until then. Peter Strübin, that drayman and Enneli his
wife, bought the house named to the Drachenfels at the old Rindermarkt on the 24 October 1490, Gerbergasses
No 15. on the 20 February 1497 possessed it the brother Heinrich Strübin of
Liestal, it sold on this day however.
Shortly before, Peter Strüblin had bought the house to the Frauenstein
at the Frienstrasse
Nr 14. In the year 1504, Peter had
already died without leaving own children.
Heinrich Strübin and Steffen Rein, the husband of a sister, pulled the
house, on which they lie money from the inheritance, had, at itself. Peter's widow, Anna that in first marriage
with a Gebhart marries wr, Gebhard bequeathed her three stepchildren
Hans, Matthäus and Mergeli in the year 1512 the house to the anchor at the
Blumenrain Nr 14. Hans Gebhard became
late mayor of Liestal. Mergeli ward the
woman of the Hans Mulich, tailors, of Basel.
This married a daughter of the mayor Heini Strübin in second
marriage. The chaplain was in the year
1468
The castle-chapel of the blissful virgin Maria and the
sacred cross on Farnsburg, Johannes Senger, died. Hans Strüblin used the opportunity, and
induced the council of Basel to present his son Nicolaus Strübe as
successors. The bishop gave his
confirmation. The young Strübin however
only remained up to the year 1471 there.
Once again, Hans Strübin knew his position to favor en of a
son from, to be of use. In Liestal, the
tavern had become free to the sun.
Applied the councilwoman son Heinrich Strüblin for the old inn and got
the permission from the council in Basel to buy the house. So, Heini Strüblin landlord turned into the
sun in Liestal and with the house-property, he acquired himself/itself after
then right, Udel
named, at the same time the franchise of Liestal.
The young man had bleed soldiers in the veins. As the Burgundy-wars broke out, there it
didn't like him in the narrow walls of the small town. With the rifle-cart drivers, he moved after
Héricourt and participated in the siege of Blamont. Heini Strübin ran away in March 1475 again,
about which Bernern to hurry to help. He
got pay for 15 days on 5 horses 11?? 5?? [question
marks here I believe relate to the currency of the times which I have no idea
what they might have been] and to it for 15 days delivery 3?? 15??.
start's Octobers 1475 became gedingt Heini Strübin again, in the same way
<< like towards Ellicordt vnd Blamont >>. at that time stripped also
an Etzberg of Liestal with him. Strübin
got 12 for 7 horses?? 12??.
In January 1476, Karl the Bold prepared to the serious fight
against the Eidgeno? ?en. [can’t read my copy]
on the 21 February moved 60 riders, 600 well-armed foot-farmhands, 100 hand-rifle-defending
from Basel and soon on it still 200 foot-farmhands after Grandson from. That << drayman >> did with Heini
Strübly, the landlord, hold and consumed 7??. Strübin itself however also
pulled with and with him still 68 Liestalers, whose names are obtained us. He had the cloister-farmhands under himself,
which, as we know that of the cloister beautiful-valley, was engaged to help
the city in the emergency with her horses, cars and carts. Strübin led the rifles, as has inferred
itself from the following numbers:
Item II??
X?? gives Heyni Strübly vmb vnd lowers down others provoked brings to the
cannons.
Item I??
VIII?? IV?? however Heyni Strübly gives to Solothurn whoever big cannons to beslahen.
Item II??
XI?? has Heyni Strübly vnd the drayman strained with the cannons to
Balstall.
As pay, he got for 7 horses 14 from the 19 February on?? us
14?? weekly and once again 9?? 3?? 2??. Strübin had come back cut-stone over
the waiters therefore safely.
Particularly, Hans (young-Hans) had forth-done himself/itself Scherrer
of Liestal. The Baslers had conquered
different guns with Grandson. As same
several Basler, << according to the Tarraß cannons to Grandson conquers hand >>,
about a gift asked, there Scherrers asked also Radegk and Hans, they their
work, to consider half.
On Wednesday the 27 March, Strübin left with 7 horses after Murten
again. The main-force of the Basler came
off admittedly only on the 15 June. The
ski-eight took place on the 22 June. 36
Liestalers had taken part in the move.
As the confederates swang back against end of the year to the last blow
against Karl the Bold, Strübin was on the plan again. He fought Berhhard Schilling of Basel under
Veltin of Neuenstein and with in the battle with Nancy and brought the drinks
as spoils stale with the picture of Karl of the bold.
Quieter times now came again. Strübin became member of the council in
Liestal and augmented his belongings. In
the year 1486, he bought from the daughter of the mayor Arnold of Rotberg,
Margerita (Gredanna), the widow of the Peter Rich of Richenstein, the
church-sentence of Ziefen, d h the yard to Ziefen together with the
church-sentence, d h the right, the pastor in Ziefen, to put down, and rights
and justices belong to-finish all. The
church-sentence had the Eptingern, named Zivener, belongs. By the sister Heinrich of the Ziveners, who
was married to Wernher Rot, he was caused at their son Hartmanns. Arnold of Rotberg married the last daughter
Clara. Arnold's daughter Gredenna transferred
him/it at Heini Strübin. The transition
was therefore essentially more prosaic, than imagined Strübins himself the
descendant the affair solicited. Pastor
was Johannes Löly at that time, that in the year 1475 on Johannes Kuntzi of
Rheinfelden, at least 1469 to 1474 + [died] in Ziefen, had followed. An Ulrich Tanner of Nollingen, Baden,
pastors, that the brother-in-law of the alderman of Strübin was not however and
was a pastor at a time in Ziefen, was previously where the Strübins had still to
do nothing with the church-sentence. In
the year 1496, a balance took place between the place of worship Ziefen and
gentleman Hans Löly his consent had to give to which master Heini Strübin,
fief-man of the church Ziefen.

As the Austrians lost to break the power of the confederates
in the year 1499 into the country and also Liestal into serious war-danger got,
there Heni Strübin was chosen to the mayor.
Indeed, one improves and war experiences been able to become entrust them/her/it
hat of the small town ern man, how probably also the old mayor had also
fought Heinrich Grünenfels of his time at Grandson. Strübin had the most active sympathies for
the confederates. He didn't have sichs
taken therefore, on the day of the battle with Domach the advance-hurried
confederate << welds covered >> the joyous message, to bring, that
the main-army of the Berner has arrived. On the way after the Schartenfluh, he had met
some Eidgenoßens, which were timidly reverse.
Roughly, he had approached them: << Dz üch gotz of sore schend,
what are irs
for lütt
and something of tund of ir here, dz ir nit by üwern fromen heren remained like
other? Strübin went even so far that he,
contrary to the command of Basel, himself completely neutral too restrained,
the confederate 15 hundredweights of lead about 5?? delivered.
Another brother Heinrich Strübins was in the course the
time, Hans after Liestal come. Hans
Strüblin had his house, << zem Eglin >> named, at the Eisengasse. On the 9 December 1462 sold he and his wife
Enneli the house at Wilhelm of Mettburg, the Bartscherer. In the year 1471, Hans Strüblin sat in the
council as representatives of the wine-people-guild. Later however he came to Liestal and
practiced his occupation as shearers and doctor. As doctor, he was very sought-after. Because as Count Wilhelm of Thierstein left
in the year 1498 in Brunnstatt at the battlefield of Dornach Hans Strübin the
Casualty his help angedeihen.
He brought from the battle a what the Rhine-fields noted badly knows
horse home. Alone that day statute in
Zurich of the 7 October gave him to recognize not only not their displeasing
but partook him 50 guilders from the money, that the wicked confederacy lies in
Lucerne, for his loyal services had.
It is strikingly that no sons will mention Heinrich Strüblin
among the children with the name Hans and Heinrich. Because the custom was so general that the
oldest sons were named after the grandfather and father that is itself not to
assume, that Liestaler Schulheiß has, from their doesn't have sent. Where they have remained however?
On the 9 May 1515, 200 Baslers pulled, under them also
approximately one dozen Liestaler, to Italy.
Your leader was Henmann Offenburg, the owner of the unoccupied-yard in
Liestal. One should not assume that
himself him the mayor's son, Heinrich connected? Captain rebounded on the third June. Truttmann with 600 men from which 41 came from
Liestal on. Under him/it latter was also
Hans Strüby, the son of the mayor. It was
completely in the order if the aged father made all sorts of reflections over
the transience of all things for himself in those days. On the day after the departure of the second
son, on the 4 June, mayor Strübin stepped for the case, that his property files
to his lifetimes or after his death in Ziefen would become, the preemption at
Basel from. The two sons Strübins died
in the battle of Marignano. Mayor
Strübin himself died in the year 1517.
The tavern and the inn to the sun became the property of Hans Gebhardt,
the stepson Peter Strüblins, that soon on it also mayor of Liestal,
became. On the 13 March 1535 sold the
heirs Heini Strübins the church-sentence of Ziefen at the city Basel. At this opportunity, we experience what has
become of the children of the mayor. The
eldest daughter, whose names don't know we (maybe Margret), was at Hans Mülich,
the tailor and citizens of Basel, marries, had died before 1535 however. Leonhard had gone in the year 1523 at the
university to Basel, had studied theology and had taken on the parish of
Ziefen. It was a decided supporter of
the Reformation, Archidekan of the landscape became 1562 up to his death and
established the 1 May 1564 the chamber-estate.
Crispian remained loyal the guild of his grandfather. He was a cloth-shearer and lived beside the
sun in the house.

Ursula found Peter Rüpel her longtime companion in the
Liestaler tailor, while Anna and Verna of Jakob Götz, that disciples, and Hans
Martin, for whom Zieglers, from Basel, were gotten into the former home of her
father to Basel. This strong migration
to the city, that did itself with the family Strübin noticeable at that time
and as well later, was not something accidental but in the memory of a
generation, that was aware of its origin and always tied the threads of the old
context anew, justifies. About it
doesn't speak that the Ziegler Hans Martin, in the house the mayor, if he
delivered the mayor his ware in Liestal occasionally, ran and his daughter won
ettes Verena dearly. In the opposite,
the interest of the Baslers in the Basler child in the foreign part was done to
only to it to relieve the Anknüpfung and to initiate a permanent
connection.
The mayor's brother, Hans Strübin, still lived in the year
1530. He seems 1539 to have died. Because a tax, to which he was indebted, was
replaced in this year. His son Heinrich
probably took on the fatherly house. The
other son, Michael, possessed 1530 vines at the Strübin in the year from. The progenitor of all Strübin of Liestal,
that dead like the living, however the Basler guild-master is to the key,
alderman and Captain Hans Strübin, that has in-worked through his descendants
as hardly another into the history of the city Liestal.
Is not with injustice with in that been renewed going rebuilding
of the town hall of Liestal the memory of the first Liestaler Strübin to end,
in that his picture has painted at the stairway-wall and the legend has become
amongst them-sober.

Comment. This, from painter Otto Plattner wall-picture

the Nancy-bowl in the hand, has vanished with the town hall-rebuilding in the
