Biographical synthesis

John Leemkuell (alt. Leemquell, Lemkuell, Mr. Leemkuell, John Leemknell, John Lemknell, Johan(n) Leemknell, Johannes Leemkuell) (b. ca. 1617-1618, Buxtehude, near Hamburg; m. (1) ?Anna, <1671 (2) Elizabeth Beack (alt. Beake), 1671; d.1684).^[1] Merchant.

Resident in London since about 1639.^[2] Probably resident in the Stillyard in 1648.^[3] Resident in the Stillyard in 1650, the parish of All Hallows the Great (in which the Stillyard was located) in 1651 and in the parish of Saint Michael Crooked Lane in 1654. "John Lemkuell" is listed as resident in "Crooked Lane" in the 1677 London directory.^[4] He had a mansion house in Crooked Lane at the time he wrote his will in December 1683.^[5]

Lemkuell described himself in 1650 as a Hamburger, but had been resident in London since about 1639 from the age of about twenty-two.^[6] Born in Buxtehude, Germany, which lies circa fifteen kilometers to the west of Hamburg. See draft certificate of English naturalization for "John Leemknell, born in Buxtehude, Germany", dated January 2nd 1661.^[7] See also his will, written in December 1683, in which he refers to lands and property of his father in Buxtehude.^[8]

John Leemkuell was married at least twice.

His first known marriage took place before 1671, to an unknown woman. This first wife may possibly have been named Anna, and speculatively may have been Anna Mathewes, and a relative of the London merchant Peter Mathewes.^[9]

His second known marriage took place on August 2nd 1671 to Mrs Elizabeth Beack (alt. Beake) of Love Lane, London. She is described as a spinster of about thirty years of age. John Leemkuell is described as a merchant of about fifty years of age of St Michael Crooked Lane.^[10] There is a marriage record from 1686 of "Mrs Elizabeth Leemknell, of St Michaell, Crooked Lane, Lond., Wid., abt 32".^[11] The age of thirty-two may be a mistranscription for forty-two. Elizabeth Leemknell is definitely John Leemkuell's second wife, whose maiden name was "Beack" or "Beake". By 1686 she had been a widow for two years, since the death of John Leemkuell in 1684. A record of treasury warrants from 1705 refers to an annuity of £42 "before certified to John Leemknell now to be paid to Abraham Beake surviving executor of Eliz. Catchpoole alias Leemknell who was executrix of the said John.^[12] Elizabeth Lemkuell, born Beack (alt. Beake) was the sister of the London merchant Abraham Beake, who was the son of the London merchant Arnold Beake.^{[13] [14]} There is some evidence in Admiralty Court depositions from the 1650s of a trading link between the Mathewes and Beake merchant families, that is between the possible family of John Leemkuell's first wife and that of his second wife. Elizabeth's will, proved in 1696, makes explicit reference to her former husband John Leemkuell, and refers to her brother Abraham Beake, and also her brother (presumably in-law) John Cronenburg.^[15]

John Leemknell (alt. Leemkuel, Leemkuell)" appears in the customer ledgers of the London banker Edward Backwell, 1663-1672.^[16]

Lemkuell appears in Fire Court documents in 1673 in connection with the Stillyard, and is described as a member of the Hansa company.

A will of "John Leemknell" was proved on May 27th 1684. The will was written on December 29th 1683. In his will, written in good health, he describes himself as a merchant of London. He refers to his sister's daughter, Anne Elizabeth, who is the wife of Claes Meyer. He refers to the eldest son of his sister, John Henry Muller alias Miller, who had been his apprentice and though no longer an apprentice still lived with him. John Henry Muller was to receive £3000 and "all my Germaine bookes". He refers to his loving wife Elizabeth Leemknell, who was still living, and who was to have and enjoy his "now Mansion House scituated in or neare Crooked Lane London". After his wife's death the mansion house was to go to his sister's eldest son. His sister's youngest son, Hans Muller alias Miller, was to receive £1000. After the death of Hans Muller alias Miller senior (the father of the eponymous Hans), the son was to receive 400 Rix dollars with interest which Hans senior owed John Leemkuell, as witnessed in a document dated 1654. He refers to lands and property overseas "at or neare Buxtehud".He gave £700 to the German Church of the Lutheran Augustans confession in Trinity Lane London.^[17]

Possibly related to the "Joachim Leemquell" whose August 28th 1677 testament is identified in a C19th Hamburg secondary source.^[18]

See Percy Ernst Schramm (1969) for background on the Hamburger Senatorenfamilie "Jencquel". Possibly related to "Lemkuell"?[.^[19]

Evidence from High Court of Admiralty

Thirty-two year old John Leemkuell deposed on October 22nd 1650 in the High Court of Admiralty. He was examined in a case concerning the ship the Brazil ffrigot.^[20] He described himself as the London factor of Christofer Polde, a Hamburg merchant, and stated that he had laden a bale of twenty pieces of bayes aboard the Brazil ffrigot at London to be transported to Lisbon and delivered there to a Dutch merchant on behalf of Polde. Lemkuell described himself as "being a Hamburger" and stated that Polde was also a native of Hamburg "of Dutch parents".^[21]

Thirty-three year old John Leemkuell deposed on July 28th 1651 in the High Court of Admiralty. He was examined on a libel on the behalf of Peterson in the case of "Peterson against Kilvert". Leemkuell stated that he had been resident in London as a merchant for the last eleven years (so since about 1639). The case concerned the shipment of Canary wine.^[22]

Thirty-seven year old John Leemkuell deposed on March 20th 1654. He was examined on an allegation on behalf of the claimers in the case of "The Clayme of John Scothering Senator of Hamburgh and others for their goods in the Peter whereof Mathias Cornelison was Master". The case concerned a ship named the Saint Peter (Master: Mathias Cornelison) which was to go from Toulon to Genua and then to Hamburg with freight for John Scothering. The ship had been laden at Toulon by Tobias Zollicoffer, one of the family of Swiss Zollicoffer merchants.^[23] The ship, as reported by Leemkuell, was a Swedish ship and her master a Swede.^[24]

John Leemkuell stated that he had been a correspondent of the Hamburgh senator and merchant John Scothering for the last four years (so since ca. 1650). Leemkuell had received a letter from Paul Langerman, another Hamburg merchant, informing him of the lading of goods for John Scothering by Tobias Zollicoffer at Toulon.^[25] Leemkuell stated that he had received another letter from John Scothering advising him that if the ship and goods should arrive in Flanders, he, Leemkuell, was to procure a license to bring and sell the currants (or some of them) in London. In such circumstances Leemkuell was to sell the currants in London and to remit half the proceeds to John Scothering in Hamburg and half to the Zollicoffers. Leemkuell reported having received a letter of advice from Marseilles containing extracted papers from the Toulon Court of Admiralty. These papers stated that the currants, prior to being loaded at Toulon into the Saint Peter had been taken at sea from a ship named the Great Turk alias the Hope by the Knights of Malya and brought to Toulon as prize.^[26]

Theodore Jacobsen of London Merchant, Peticioner against Jacob Jacobsen, President of the Merchants of Almayne, and the said Merchants of Almayne being under and of the Confederacion, Leige and Company of the Dutch Hanze, otherwise called Merchants of Almayne.

Whereas the said Theodore Jacobsen lately exhibited his Peticion into this Court of Iudicature, hereby setting forth in effect, that he was possessed at the time of the late dreadfull fire, which happened in London, of One back Mesuage or Tenement with a Wharf and several! other Warehouses and buildings thereunto belonging, the Tofts and ground whereof doe conteyne the dimensions following, that is to say: On the South fronting the River of Thames from East to West One hundred fifty and seaven feet and One inch and thereabouts; on the Westside thereof from the said front to the Backside of the building in Thames-Street from South to North, two hundred eighty three feet and foure inches ore thereabouts, beside the said wharfe, on which Westside is one breake in the North Corner Thirty and seven feet from the backside of the North building two feet levell; on the North End from the Eastside to the West middle Walls One hundred forty two feet and five inches or thereabouts; and on the Eastside thereof from North to South, besides the said Wharfe, two hundred Eighty Six feet and three inches or thereabouts (on which said Eastside are foure severall small Breakes] situate, lying and being in the Stilehoff, alias Stileyard, in Thames Street in the Parish of AU Hallowes the Great, in Dowgate Ward in London, as Tenant unto the abovenamed Merchants of Almayne, being under and of the said Confederacion, Leige and Company of the said Dutch Hanze, otherwise called Merchants of Almayne, having an house in the City of London, commonly called Guildhall Teutoni- corum, in whome the said Stileyard with the said Mesuage, Warehouses and buildings (amongst other things) were vested by Act of Parliament, made in a Parliament held at Westminster on the Sixth day of October, in the Twelfth yeare of the reigne of King Edward the fourth, and there continued by divers Prorogacions to the Three and twentieth day of January in the fourteenth yeare of the reigne of said King Edward the fourth, whereby the said Stileyard (amongst other things) is limited to the said Almayne Merchants, that then were or that afterwards should bee, to have and to hold unto them and their Successors for ever; that the said Mesuage or Tenement, Warehouses and buildings were burned downe and consumed by the said dreadfull fire, which happened in London in the Mo- neth of September, in the yeare of our Lord One thousand six hundred sixty and six. And the Petitioner is willing to rebuild the same, soe as hee may have reasonable encouragement thereunto, which he has proposed unto the abovenamed Jacob Jacobsen, the said President of the said Almayne Merchants, and also unto the said Almayne Merchants of the said Guildhall Teutonicorum, which hath been as yelt refused unto the Peticioner: hee therefore humbly prayed the Court to'grant Warrants to warne the said Jacob Jacobsen and the said Merchants of Almayne to bee and appeare in this Court of Iudicature at a Day therein to bee limited to the end, that such Decree might bee made in the premisses, as the Court should thinke meet. Whereupon Warrants were granted and issued from this Iudicature directed to the said President and Merchants of Almayne to bee and appeare here this present One and thirtieth day of October.

And the said Counsell further informed the Court, that the said Peticioner is obliged by the said Company to an extraordinary way of building, both for strength and ornament, and that to perfect and finish the same accordingly will cost him seven or eight thousand pounds. And therefore to encourage him to performe so chargable a Worke for the honor and splendor of the city, being a place much resorted to by the foraigners and straingers, the said Counsell prayed the Court to decree unto the said Peticioner a terme of forty yeares from Michaelmas last at the said yearly rent of One hundred and tenn pounds. And in regard the said building in respect of the largeness thereof will take upp more time then is usuall for ordinary buildings before the same can bee effected, {the said Councell prayed, that the Peticioner may have time allowed him for buil ding untill Midsomer next come twelve Moneths.
