Lüttig
Johannes Stephan Lüttig, son of Georg Michael & Apollonia Lüttig, was baptized on 27 December 1742 in Weitersweiler, Kurpfalz (today in Kreis Kirchheimbolanden in Bavaria). He married there on 16 January 1764 to Anna Agnes Glas, daughter of Jordan Glas. She died in January 1765 and was buried in Weitersweiler on 11 January 1765 before they had been married for even a year.
