I have found a Jodokus Pelzer, notary at Münster Emmel in 1724. Also a wayside crucifix can be seen today in Münster Emmel with an inscripture: "VND ZUR EHRE GOTTES AUFRICHTEN LASSEN JOANNES PELZER 1722", "erected to the glory of God by Joannes Pelzer 1722". In Neumagen-Dhron we have a little street called "Pelzergasse".

[2]: His brother Michell married on 6^th January 1662 (see page 15). Probably Jost married on the same day.
