Notes:
1590 Bürgermeister in Markelsheim. His name, along with the names of the other Bürgermeister, of the Schultheiß, and of another man, was inscribed on a stone tablet in 1590, formerly mounted on the outside wall of a bath room at Scheuerntorstraße 34 in Markelsheim. He is probably depicted along with other members of his extended family on an epitaph commissioned 1610 and since about 1972 mounted in the Leichenhalle in Markelsheim. On this epitaph, he is likely the man in the main panel on the extreme left.

MARKELSG ascribes the bath house inscription to Melchior’s father, also named Melchior Bach.
