Notes:
-He was born at 4 in the morning, and baptized the same day.
-In 1784, his father died by eating a poisoned goose. Georg Michael had served him the dinner, but claimed it was inadvertantly poisoned. Following an autopsy, he was immediately handcuffed, shackled and arrested. After a trial he was sentenced to 5 years hard labor as a galley slave, chained as an oarsman in a large ship. Most did not survive this punishment, and it was considered the harshest punishment given at the time. He did survive and had more children upon his return.
-Had eight children in all.
