son Jacob Stolterfoht  1600-1668 Lubeck
 
her parents Lucas Bacmeister, who among other things wrote a hymn called "Ach leue Her im höchsten thron" which I have not yet been able to track down.

    The Bacmeister ancestors are certain only up to Johann Backmester, brewer and father of Lucas I. Bacmeister. Of the further Bacmeister we only know some names and places, but not their relationship - and they were no bakers. The name Bacmeister was first mentioned in Goslar in 1284.
