Notes:
Vagabond in Rodalben, traveling merchant in Mörzheim, then merchant, bookbinder, and sieve maker in Klingenmünster. His marriage record and civil death record give his name as Johann David Birckmeyer, while other sources record his name just as Johannes Birckmeyer. He married his first two wives in the St. German und Moritzkirche in Speyer, in which marriage records he is listed as being from “Eberstein”. In 1782 he is listed in the Mörzheim Catholic baptism records as a traveling merchant from “Ebersheim [Ebertheim?] territorii Badensis”. This is perhaps the Oberamt Eberstein in Baden, which included Gernsbach, Staufenberg, and Scheuern, but no Birckmayer/Bürckmeyer records have been found in those three places. His civil death record lists his birthplace as Haueneberstein in Baden, which was not in the Oberamt Eberstein, but no matching baptism records have been found there either for the period Feb 1752 to May 1757. He didn't know how to write.

The names of Johannes’ parents are found in the civil marriage records of Klingenmünster for his second marriage dated 30 Brum IX (21 Nov 1800). These names, however, are nearly exactly a mix of Johannes’ first wife’s father’s and second wife’s names. They may thus be in error.

Buckenmayer, Buchenmayer, Bockmeyer, including the immigrant from Riedseltz and later resident in a lesser village near Klingenmünster (married in Klingenmünster 1778) and the gardener in Weißenburg (married in Klingenmünster 1785) are almost certainly not Johannes Bürckmaÿer.
