General Notes (Husband)

Secondly, Reinhard Henrich Bertram Vincent, seignior at Lauersfort, gave himself up to the civil service. He and his brother, Mauritz Godfried studied from 1724 to 1728 at Giessen. This university at that time, was attended almost exclusively by the nobility of the Reich. Thereupon, he was given an appointment as a councillor of the government. In the newly organized government at Moers, the King appointed him vice-president in 1749; and, some years later, he became chief of that government. Moreover, he was a member of the executive committee for the representation of the country at Geldern. During the Seven Years' War, he had render an essential service to the country, because he knew how to ingratiate himself with the French body of generals; however, also to make himself respected and to gain esteem. From his sister, Lady von Stechow, he bought the Manor House Impel, with its dependencies, which was situated in the city. He restored the house at great expense, fitted it up according to the latest style, and furnished all the many and spacious apartments, for which he gave work to a guilder for more than one year. He was a passionate hunter. During his last years, his health was ruined by paralytic strokes which were repeated five or six times. From the first one, he had recovered. Then, however, he remained entirely paralyzed on his right side and went with crutches. About one year before his death, when having another paralytic stroke, he lost his speech, which he could not regain. He died, unmarried, on April 1, 1770, at the age of 68. With the exception of some legations; namely, 1,000 Rthlr. in favor of his sister's children, those von Stechow; 300 Rthlr. in favor of the "Gymnasium" [the public school]; and 200 Rthlr. in favor of the poor, he had appointed the brother next to him as his sole heir... 6,193
