Hieronymus Boldich, f. Ca 1520, Haderslev, Region of Southern Denmark, Denmark d. 13 Apr 1572, Haderslev, Region of Southern Denmark, Denmark (Alder 52 år)
In an amendment to this article (Th.O. Achelis "Haderslev Bys Borgmestre" (The Mayors of Haderslev City), Personalhistorisk Tidsskrift (Danish Genealogical Journal) 1932, pp. 129-145.) Achelis mentions that Christoffer Boldich inaddition had a daughter Anna, married to Gert Busch in Haderslev. In this amendment Achelis refers to an article by Olaus Schmidt in Norsk Slektshistorisk Tidsskrift (Norwegian Genealogical Journal) 1931, p. 8. The same family relation is supposed to be refered to in Hornemann's genealogical collection in Trondheim and is often repeated by Norwegian genealogists.
Another view is presented by the well known Danish genealogist Carl Langholz in "Anetavler for Berømte Danskere" (Ancestry of Famous Danes), 1989. He mentions Anna Boldich as daughter of Hieronymus Boldich and not of Christoffer.
None of the above sources mention any primary sources as evidence of their theories.
Looking at the chronology I tend to favour Carl Langholz' view. It is a weakness that we do not know exactly when these persons were born, but let me give it a try anyway. Langholz thinks that Hieronymus was born appr. 1520. As he is mentioned already in 1544 and has a brother-in-law in 1549, it is reasonable to believ that he was born appr. 1510-20 and had his children in the years between 1540 and 1560. Christoffer Boldich died appr. 1625-30, his first wife died in 1593 and Cirstina survived him. From this information one may assume that he was born appr. 1550. Anna Boldich's and Gert Busch's son Hans Gertsen Busch who became mayor in Trondheim 1630-32 and again in 1635-49 was born in Haderslev either in 1585 or in 1588. This makes it reasonable to believe that Anna Boldich was born around 1560. This chronology has its weaknesses and is not very precise, but it points to Hieronymus - and not Christoffer - being the father of Anna.
Until these relations have been firmly established those who believe Christoffer is the father of Anna can enjoy having another ancestor. As mentioned above it has been established that Hieronymus if the father of Christoffer.
