About Christian Leopold Moes

  • Baptism, wedding and death. It says he was baptised in Leuscheid.
  • This record says he was baptised in Herchen, Rheinland. Both places are in Windeck, Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, but looking at the other sibling he most likely was born in Herchen. The family apparently moved to Leuscheid cirka 1782.

According to his granddaughter, Wally Moes, he moved from Germany and established himself as a cloth merchant in Amsterdam. He did well in the beginning but hard times hit him, and he lost the fortune he made initially. In his later days he moved to work as a pastor in Paramaribo, Suriname. (From the book Heilig Ongeduld, by Wally Moes.)
