1. 227280

Birth: 11 Nov 1750, Prussia Baptism: 1771, Heubuden, Gross Werder, Prussia Death: Bef 1801, Schoenhorst, Chortitza, South Russia Misc: minister Father: Giesbrecht, Wilhelm, 1701, #266431 Mother: (name unknown), , #266432 Last update: 18 Dec 2012 Family: SPOUSE: Harder, Christina, 11 Nov 1758, #196566 Married: ; Russia Last update: 3/3/2012 1 -- +Giesbrecht, Abraham, 11 Nov 1792, #227120 2 -- +Giesbrecht, Cornelius, Abt 1797, #188071 3 -- Giesbrecht, Margaretha, 1795, #227281 Notes: Note: He may be the David Giesbrecht listed in Pietzkendorf as a single man In the 1776 W. Prussia Mennonite Census (H. Penner, p. 434). He was elected as a minister in 1789 in Dubrovno. He was dismissed as a minister in 1790 because he was involved in some quarrels with others in the church in the Chortitza Colony. In the 1795 Chortitza Colony Census he is listed at Schoenhorst #4 (B. H. Unruh, p. 241). Y Chromosome DNA data from his descendents from the Mennonite DNA project does not match that of the descendents of Jacob Giesbrecht (b. ca 1765) #198892 and Wilhelm Giesbrecht (b. ca 1767) #266433. This would suggest that either he was not a brother of Jacob Giesbrecht (b. ca 1765) #198892 or Wilhelm Giesbrecht (b. ca 1767) #266433 as has been previously suggested by Henry Schpansky (Mennonite Migrations, p. 590) or that an adoption or illegitmate birth occurred somewhere in the lineage of David Giesbrecht's descendents who have been tested.
