Narrative
[gfdgdf.FTW]
Heinrich Kölb was a "vine dresser" and lived in or near the town of Wolfsheim, Germany (SW of Mainz). A 1665 census of 20 communities in the general area of Kreigsheim, west of the Rhine River, names Wolfsheim as containing Mennonite inhabitants.
Menonnites were not considered citizens but "tolerated" people who paid special taxes for the privilege of living and working among the citizens. They did not fit any of the three religious categories, Catholic, Lutheran and Reformed. They were considered "irritating" prople who looked after their own spiritual concerns, did not go to church, or the official sacrament, "let their children run about unbaptized," sometimes held "their services boldly in the forest," and even had the audacity to "solemnize marriages" on their own.
The Kölb family stands out as leaders in the Mennonite communities in both the Palatinate and Pennsylvania.
