Notes:

An old Flemish family, "van Munte" has its name from a place still called Munte. It lies in the province of Oost-Vlandern about 12Km south of Ghent, Belgium. First evidence of the van Muntes is an old Latin gift letter from the year 990, in which it was spelled Monte. In the following 300 years it is variously Munte, Monte, Munta and Monthe, in the 13th century also Munthe, but the normal way of spelling it was Munte.

In 1072 a diploma was witnessed by Ascricus van Munte. Ascricus is the first person that with certainty is the ancestor of the family, as in earlier times one would only sign his first name, sometimes with the addition of the fathers. The earliest mention of the name Munte is in 990, but no records are available until in 1072. So, the van Munthe line traces back to the year 1072, Ghent Belgium. Ascricus Munte married an unknown woman in 1102 in St Peters Church in Ghent, Belgium. He died after 1114.
Family members became Priests and Bishops of the State Churches. They held high positions in St Peters Church in Ghent.
Given the coat of arms by Emperor Maximilian in a letter of recognition dated Antwerpen 20 March 1509.

From the age of the crusades the ancient knight families lost much of their power and wealth, and when Flanders, after the death of Ludwig II, was left to the house of Burgundy and the new lords mostly surrounded themselves with foreign nobles many of the "native" families vanished. Many drifted towards the cities like Ghent, and in the 15th century the family van Munte seems to have settled here.

In the first half of the 16th century the family van Munte disappears from Ghent. Actually they fled because of a failed uprising against the Spanish Empire of Charles V in 1539. Flanders in general and Ghent in particular were an international centre of trade and industry and therefore an important source of revenue for Spain. The revolt was a reaction to high taxes, which the Flemish felt, were only used to fight wars abroad. The emperor - who was himself born in Ghent - personally came to the city to suppress the rebellion and obliged the city's nobles to walk in front of him, barefoot and with a strop around the neck. Since this incident the people of Ghent have taken on the sobriquet Stroppendragers (noose bearers). During the Reformation period many of these families fled to Lubeck in Germany and later to Scandinavia.

Ludvig Munthe was a merchant in Lubeck. One of his sons was the first Munthe in Sweden, priest Ludvig Ludvigsen Munthe i Lund, and another son was Hans Ludvigsen Munthe, who became parish rector in Tikøb in Denmark, he died in 1601 together with his wife and a newborn son. The second son of merchant Ludvig Munthe and Elisabeth Paludan, according to his epitaph. (No information is known about his early youth.)

At the early age of 25 Hans (as his brother Ludvig) worked as page-steward to the Danish royal court during the reign of King Fredrick II. He and his brother were approved as teachers and guides for his sons.

There is good reason to believe that the two Munthe boys found guidance and support from their mother's sister Barbara Paludan and her husband court preacher Christopher Knoff also originally a Dutch emigrant.

There probably was a close relationship between the emigrant families de Fine, Knoff, Munthe and Paludan all working at court. On 22 January 158 5 by royal commission Hans was appointed to be Duke Ulrich's teacher to assist him with educating the little squires. Ulrich was the second oldest son of the king while Hans' brother Ludvig worked for the crown prince in a similar position.

After eighteen months Hans was appointed parish rector of Tikøb between Helsingør and Gilleleje 20 June 1586. Shortly after this he married Catherine de Fine. They probably met each other at the court of the royal Fredericksborg Castle. After fifteen years in Tikøb, fourteen years of marriage he died at the age of 41 in September 1601. Also his wife and one son died during this period all victim s of the plague. In 1608 an epitaph was erected by their children.

Munthe Familien & deres børn

Ludvig von Munthe was born in Ghent, Belgium in 1520. He was the son of Maj. Gen. Adam Munthe the mother is unknown, and the son of Abel Munthe. The family had to flee in 1539, together with a part Gentere, since they participated in a failure of the rebellion against the Spanish ruler and refused to pay a new tax as it had been ordered to pay them. Ludvig reduced itself as a merchant in Lübeck, Germany, but remained steady, with its commercial connection in the Dutch handelsbyer.
The father, Adam von Munthe, died in 1547 in Lübeck.

In 1550 Ludwig von Munthe married Elisabeth Paludan in Lübeck. She was also an emigrant of the Netherlands-the daughter of Hans Paludan and Barbara Rone.

Ludvig von Munthe and Elisabeth Paludan had at least 2 sons, Ludvig Ludvigsen Munthe and Hans Ludvigsen Munthe -the latter born in 1660.

Ludwig married Elisabeth Johannesdatter Paludan in 1550 in Lübeck, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. Elisabeth (daughter of Hans Paludan and Barbara Von Der Rone) was born in 1535 in Ghent, Oost-Vlaanderen, Belgium; died in 1578 in Lübeck, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Arnold de Fine, 1530-13 Nov 1586, was a Flemish/Danish organist and conductor, who from 1556 lived and worked in Denmark for King Christian the 3rd and Frederik 2. He is believed to come from Antwerp, possibly with the name van Eynde or von End, and died in Helsingør. He is believed to be buried in St. Mikkels kirke i Slagelse, because he allegedly possessed a beneficie there (løngivende but labor-free office).

His descendants occupied many public offices in Denmark and Norway, for example as priests, bishops or royal officials, and now known under various derivations of the name (de Fine Olivarius, de Fine Licht and de Fine Skibsted). Many of them bore the first name Arnold.

1556-1560 and again from 1563 he was employed by King Christian 3. In the intervening years he was organist to the Queen. In 1565 he got a stand in the Roskilde Cathedral (temporarily beneficie). Since the chapel after the Nordic Seven needed a reorganization was appointed to de Fine fifth June 1571 to the conductor (for the Royal Chapel), replacing Amsfortius. That same year he renewed his stand in Roskilde, and given his long and faithful service he received a 1583 kannikedømme in Aarhus. These fictitious offices (counsel or præbender) was a tradition from Catholic times, and the king used them as wages to his employees, without any ecclesiastical duties attached to them.

The following document from Kjøbenhavns Diplomatarium says that Arnold de Fine on November 24 in 1578 sheep ejendomret to a house in København:

Notes:

Anna Hansdatter Svane was born at Ribe, the daughter of Hans Svaning and Marine Sørensdatter Stage. Her grandfather was historian Hans Svaning (ca. 1500- 1584) whose surname was subsequently altered to Svane. In 1590, she was married to the mayor of Horsens, burgher merchant Hans Olufsen Riber (d. 1615). The couple had seven children, two of whom died as infants. Her daughter Anne Svane (ca. 1596) was married to mayor of Horsens Ernst von Baden. One son Oluf Svane (ca. 1601) became mayor of Horsens. Her youngest son Hans Svane (1606-1668) would become Bishop of the Diocese of Zealand.

After the death of her spouse, she took over his business and managed his properties in Horsens. She became a leading member of the then growing wealthy Danish burgher class. During the sack of Jutland by German troops during the Thirty Years' War in 1627-29, she fled to her son Hans in Frisia.

In 1631, she founded a home for poor widows called Svaneboligen at Fugholm 16 in Horsens. The foundation was the first of its kind in Horsens and belonged to the first institutions of its kind in Denmark. Anna Svane died at Horsens in 1637 and was buried at Horsens Klosterkirke.

AS grew up in a home as a result of his father's work must have been influenced by spiritual and intellectual pursuits. A good testimony of the home's special character is that almost all of her brothers had a university education and that her sisters were married to professors, priests, an alderman and a bailiff. AS was by all accounts one of the youngest in the large sibship of 15 In 1590, she entered in Ribe marriage with Hans Olufsøn Riber. She was probably pretty young when she was breaking. Those of her sisters, as we know both birth and death year for only 15 and 16 years of marriage, which incidentally was not unusual for girls from this social strata. This age was recommended also by Luther to prevent pre-marital sexual relations.

AS sat live in Horsens, where her husband was mayor. He had already for some years operated business acumen here, where his sister Anna was married to the city's second mayor. AS was the mayor's wife in her marriage samfulde 25 years. The couple had seven children, two of whom died in infancy. His daughter Anne was married to a later Mayor of Horsens Ernst von Baden. Son of Oluf was himself Mayor of Horsens, and daughter Else was married three times, all times with a priest, while his son Donald died young. Finally, AS the mother of the later renowned professor and bishop of Zealand, Hans Hansen S., who was one of the prominent men of stændermødet in 1660 prior to the introduction of absolute monarchy. AS was included in the network that in the aftermath of the Reformation consisted of the country's richest and most powerful citizens and educated clergy. She was part of a long chain of self-conscious Protestant mayor families. Her maternal grandparents and in-laws were borgmesterpar, her sister-mayor's wife, a sister married an alderman, and she herself was the mother of a Mayor's wife and a mayor. Girls as AS was attractive partners for clergy and large drugstores because they could read and write well-known environment and the tasks to be solved in a large household. Conversely gave these men's households scope to the talents, the girls through upbringing had been equipped with.

After her husband's death continued AS running business acumen and management of the couple's many properties in Jaipur. Since Jutland was occupied during the Imperial War 1627-29, she went away and stayed particular with his son Hans, who in 1628 studied at Franeker in Friesland. Upon her return she founded in caring for women who were far worse off than herself, in 1631 a house for three poor widows. The house is still called the Swan property is located in the street Fugholm. Widow Foundation was the first of its kind in Horsens and one of the first in Denmark. Also in other ways put themselves AS a memory. The Abbey Church of Horsens is one of the oldest epitaphs, and here she is the central person. The painting depicts her parents, spouse, AS themselves, their daughter and son in law who was borgmesterpar in Horsens, and her other children. The production of children shows that it must be painted before the 1614th The framework and parts of the inscription are younger. The idea of ??creation as well epitaph was no stranger to the AS. Her family in Ribe had previously donated money so that poor people could get a roof over your head, but she was the first who made a living solely designed for women. Also had several relatives charged setup epitaphs of Ribes churches. Her morfaders epitaph was created by painter Lauritz Andersen, who in 1600 moved from Ribe to Aarhus, where he was shop until his death in 1637. Indeed, he who has painted epitaph in the Abbey Church. With the epitaph which so clearly refers to Jaipur city's most prominent scholars of citizenship and its ancestors, marked AS and her family both their piety and their family history and self-consciousness.

Anna was born and raised in Ribe - who at the age of almost 17 years old, married with Horsens mayor Hans Olufsøn Riber - son of Oluf Staby, who was also Ripenser - and just as Anna was born in Ribe. They were married in Ribe cathedral in the 9th august in the year of our Lord 1595.

Hans Olufsøn Riber was a reputable and highly prosperous merchant in Horsens at 45 years old when he married Anne. That he was also mayor in more than 25 years in Horsens, probably has not been bad business, but he was a pious and honest grocer.

It was a happy marriage that lasted for 25 years minus one week of his death 7 days before they should have had their silver wedding. Together they had 5 children. Else, Anne, Oluf, Michael and Donald.

Anne Svane was a good and loving mother to her children. But she was also a "fighter" who knew how to take a hand in things when necessary. Evidence suggests that she was also skilled at the business level, after her husband's death she drove his business forward while she would secure the future of her 5 children.

2 of their sons became prominent figures in the Danish political scene, namely, the eldest son Oluf Svane and his brother - Roskilde bishop Hans Svane. On of them has our special interest - in the family context - is the later Horsens mayor Olufsen (Riber) Swan.

But first a little about the archbishop of Roskilde "Hans Svane", which indeed is a significant historical figure in the Danish context.

The background was Denmark's disastrous economic situation after the Swedish wars. The nobility had abandoned during the wars, and there was widespread resentment against them and their tax exemption.

By clever tactical games, including by Hans Svane and Hans Nansen, was outmaneuvered nobility and Frederick III elected hereditary monarch. Thus fell the fierce charter, he had to sign the 1648th

Hans Svane is probably best known for his involvement in the large stænderdermøde in 1660, and his struggle for the introduction of absolute monarchy and the abolition of the nobility's privileges. But he was also a wealthy man in particular, King borrowed some money, as this used include the war against Swedes.

So when King Frederik III, after the war, gave Roskilde Len citizens in Copenhagen - as thanks for their bravery in the war against the Swedes - forgot the king, however, that large parts of the county had pledged to Bishop Svane in Roskilde and Interest Master Müller.

Since these two mortgagees knew their rights, it led to tough negotiations which ended with Bishop Svane, 53 farms and 33 houses, Interest Master Müller had 42 houses, 8 mills and large forests. So it was a considerable fortune in real estate he had.

His daughter Anne Svane - 60 +

Kinch writes about "Anna had on 9th August 1590 wedding with Hans Olufsen Riber, Borger and later Mayor of Horsens and was the mother of the celebrated Bishop (Archbishop) Dr Hans Svane of Zealand Diocese, who played a leading part in Widow Violence Corey Introduction 1660 . "

Hans Olufsen Riber, who was the son of Olaf Staby in Ribe, had 2 sisters, of whom Else was married to Peter Lambertsen in Ribe, and Anne Anders Madsen, Mayor of Horsens.

AS grew up in a home as a result of his father's work must have been influenced by spiritual and intellectual pursuits. A good testimony of the home's special character is that almost all of her brothers had a university education and that her sisters were married to professors, priests, an alderman and a bailiff. AS was by all accounts one of the youngest in the large sibship of 15 In 1590, she entered in Ribe marriage with Hans Olufsøn Riber. She was probably pretty young when she was breaking. Those of her sisters, as we know both birth and death year for only 15 and 16 years of marriage, which incidentally was not unusual for girls from this social strata. This age was recommended also by Luther to prevent pre-marital sexual relations.

AS sat live in Horsens, where her husband was mayor. He had already for some years operated business acumen here, where his sister Anna was married to the city's second mayor. AS was the mayor's wife in her marriage samfulde 25 years. The couple had seven children, two of whom died in infancy. His daughter Anne was married to a later Mayor of Horsens Ernst von Baden. Son of Oluf was himself Mayor of Horsens, and daughter Else was married three times, all times with a priest, while his son Donald died young. Finally, AS the mother of the later renowned professor and bishop of Zealand, Hans Hansen S., who was one of the prominent men of stændermødet in 1660 prior to the introduction of absolute monarchy. AS was included in the network that in the aftermath of the Reformation consisted of the country's richest and most powerful citizens and educated clergy. She was part of a long chain of self-conscious Protestant mayor families. Her maternal grandparents and in-laws were borgmesterpar, her sister-mayor's wife, a sister married an alderman, and she herself was the mother of a Mayor's wife and a mayor. Girls as AS was attractive partners for the clergy and great merchants, because they could read and write well-known environment and the tasks to be solved in a large household. Conversely gave these men's households scope to the talents, the girls through upbringing had been equipped with.

After her husband's death continued AS running business acumen and management of the couple's many properties in Jaipur. Since Jutland was occupied during the Imperial War 1627-29, she went away and stayed particular with his son Hans, who in 1628 studied at Franeker in Friesland. Upon her return she founded in caring for women who were far worse off than herself, in 1631 a house for three poor widows. The house is still called the Swan property is located in the street Fugholm. Widow Foundation was the first of its kind in Horsens and one of the first in Denmark. Also in other ways put themselves AS a memory. The Abbey Church of Horsens is one of the oldest epitaphs, and here she is the central person. The painting depicts her parents, spouse, AS themselves, their daughter and son in law who was borgmesterpar in Horsens, and her other children. The production of children shows that it must be painted before the 1614th The framework and parts of the inscription are younger. The idea of ??creation as well epitaph was no stranger to the AS. Her family in Ribe had previously donated money so that poor people could get a roof over your head, but she was the first who made a living solely designed for women. Also had several relatives charged setup epitaphs of Ribes churches. Her morfaders epitaph was created by painter Lauritz Andersen, who in 1600 moved from Ribe to Aarhus, where he was shop until his death in 1637. Indeed, he who has painted epitaph in the Abbey Church. With the epitaph which so clearly refers to Jaipur city's most prominent scholars of citizenship and its ancestors, marked AS and her family both their piety and their family history and self-consciousness.
