WANTED ALL INFORMATION ABOUT HOLLANDSK KOBBERHANDLER
Hello,
Im doing an resourch about the Hollandsk Kobberhandlers.
Not much information known about them in my own country, unfortunately.
I am looking for as much information as possible so that I have enough sources to write a nice book about these special men, one of whom is also my ancestor, which makes it even more interesting.
The best thing would be if I could find descendants of the copper merchants, because I am looking for pictures and personal stories, from hearsay.
Who oh Who is a descendant of the Dutch Copper Traders. These are the traders who were born in Luyksgestel in the Netherlands.
All information is welcome.

My Family
Efter hendes første mands død blev hun gift med en af de såkaldte kedelførere ved navn Johan Melskens.
Han hørte til et nederlandsk selskab, der havde fået privilegium på at rejse landet rundt med kedler og andet kobbertøj og selv havde en fabrik til forfærdigelsen af sådanne sager ved Haraldskjær ved Vejle. Privilegiet er nu hævet engang i tredserne. Såsnart en deltager giftede sig, måtte han træde ud af selskabet.
Johan Melskens fik nu Tørring kro med sin kone. Dette ægteskab var nok ingenlunde lykkeligt, da hun var stemplet og han af et hidsigt gemyt.
Det er fortalt, at han undertiden mishandlede hende i høj grad.
Dette ægteskab opløstes ved hendes død den 10. oktober 1821 og havde således varet i omtrent 14 år.
Inger Magdalene (Malene) Nielsdatter, min farmor, havde i sine 2 ægteskaber mange børn, som jeg senere vil komme til at omtale. Hendes anden mand, Johan Melskens, der var født i Nederlandene, overlevede hende i godt 18 år. Da han blev ejer af Tørring kro, var der nok betydelig velstand, og han og hans hustru havde omgang med de større familier i den nærmeste kreds
Thank you, very nice information for me, can I contact you???
Sure, by my email
