    Notes:

    I found this information about the Montanus family in a 1897 book.  This family had several letters preserved in the library and archives of the Gotha Gymnasium ( Gothae Gymnasialbibliothek ) so it was in a paper that was presented by the Oberlehrer [ Headteacher ] Dr Max [ Maximilian Carl ] Schneider ( 1858 – 1920, lifelong resident of Gotha ) on 9 April 1897 as the main part of the program for the festivities at the Ducal Gymnasium Ernestium in Gotha.  The title is “Die Gelehrtenbriefe der Gothae Gymnasialbibliothek aus dem XVI. und XVII. Jahrhundert [ The Letters of the Scholars at the Library of the Gotha Gymnasium from the 16th and 17th Centuries ]”.  I did look for Michael Buchenröder, the Mörlins and the Thomæs but I didn’t find any of them in the paper.  However, I did find “Sebaldus Krugk” of Coburg.   From page 16 :

    Montanus, Johannes Erhartus, Magister, Pastor of Heldburg.  1 Letter :  Folio VI, Nr 112 ( 1604 ).
    [ Born 1558 in Hildburghausen as son of the Archdeacon, was 1582 – 1587 Deacon at St Margaretha’s Church in Gotha, 1588 – 1592 Pastor of Waltershausen, then Superintendent of Heldburg, + 23 July 1605.  He was the brother of the Conrector of Madgeburg, Ehrhartus Am Bergk ( see above ) and the father of Magister Frid.

    Montanus, Fridericus Wigandus, of Heldburg in Franconia.  2 Letters :  Folio VII, Nr 61 ( 1612 sine loco = Latin, “no place” ).  Folio VII, Nr 62 ( 1612, Gissae Hessorum = Latin, Giessen, Hesse ).
    [ He was a son of the preceding and 1617 – 1635 Pastor of Gleichenberg and Lindau bei Römhild, + soon after 1635 in Hildburghausen.  Sources :  Brückner, Vol. I, pp. 9, 85.  Krauss, Beiträge, Vol. I, p. 156.  Wetzel, p. 96. ]
