Hans Anchersen was married circa 1625 to Metta Jacobsdatter (1585-1630), daughter of Jacob Andresen. Metta died of "pest" (plague) and was buried together with her husband, who also had died of plague. According to O.H. Møller it was Metta's desire to die along with her husband, howeverthe more likely reason for her taking her self to her bed is that she also had become infected.

He also held the position of "konsistorial-assessor" and from 1610 was dean (provst) for Haderslev county. Marine Pedersdatter Hegelund is known to have received 9 years of education.

Poul Hansen Anchersen died "meget hasteligen" (very suddenly) on October 27, 1635, and was buried in Starup. On the outside wall of Starup Church a gravestone was put in place for Poul Hansen Anchersen and his two wives. It carries a latin inscription and an angel holding three shields. The middle shield is Poul Hansen Anchersen's coat of arms, which naturally enough is an anchor; the shield to the right depicts a tree between two lions; the one on the left depicts a skull surrounded by sheaves of grain and a serpent.

(Johannes Ancharius), immatrikuleret i Rostock og tog magistergrad 1552.

Hjælpepræst i Starup-Grarup fra 1554 og Sognepræst samme sogn fra 1574 til sin død.

Hans Anchersen (also known by the latin influenced name: Johannes Ancharius) took matriculation in Rostock, he would later get his"magistergrad" in 1552. Was assistant pastor (hælpepræst) for Starup-Grarup parish from 1554, and would become pastor (sognepræst)there from 1574 until his death. Starup is located just a few kilometres south-east of Haderslev, and Grarup is just a few kilometers further east of that.

On the history of the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein, and their relationship to Danmark:
Until sometime under King Valdemar II (reigned 1202-41), the Kingdom of Danmark bordered onto the germanic states just south of the Slien (Schlei) inlet. Valdemar II awarded his second son the southern part of Jylland as a duchy - from the Slien in the south (in between the towns of Schleswig and Kiel) north up the Jylland peninsula to the river Konge-Aa, however the northern border of the duchy followed only the Konge-Aa until just east of Ribe, then it drops south, then west towards the coast. While Schleswig was given the status of a duchy, its Duke ultimately owed fealty to the Danish king.

The Duchy of Schleswig has traditionally reached from the rivers Eiderand the Slien, in the south, to Konge-Aa, in the north. The Duchy of Holstein from the river Eider, in the north, to the river Elbe, in the south. Later, inheritance rights for Schleswig became a matter of contention. Gradually some areas were considered Royal domain of Danmark and some of Prussia, other parts were ruled by the Duke of Gottorp, and some parts were ruled in common. In the Duchy of Schleswig some cities had independent status (known as imperial free-cities), ruled directly by the Kingdom of Danmark. The Duchy of Holstein was split up in thismanner as well: parts were considered royal domain of the Danmark; partsthe domain of the Duke of Gottorp, some common areas, some ruled by the germans (Prussia). This situation was untenable to the rulers involved, and eventually led to fighting.

In 1658 the Duke of Gottorp-Holstein became sovereign over the "Duke'spart" of the Duchies Schleswig and Holstein, however it never was a "territorial entity" and it was a constant reason for quarrels and wars. Very simplistically the Duchy of Schleswig became totally "royal"(Danish) in 1721, and the Duke of Gottorp was restricted to the Holsteinareas.

In 1806, as a result of the "Napoleonic reorganisation", Schleswig and Holstein came under the control of the Danish king (with an independent administration). Danmark had sided with Napolean against England afterrefusing to hand over its naval fleet to England. In 1807 the Engish navy blockaded, and then bombarded København, which destroyed the city and killed thousands of its citizens.

In 1815 the Congress of Vienna ruled the Duchy of Holstein ("south of the Eider") to be a part of the "German Bund" (i.e. all the Germanic states and Austria). In 1846 the Danish King ruled Schleswig to be part of his kingdom, and that the heritage rights of the Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg was restricted to Holstein.

By 1848 both Duchies had declared themselves independant, and on April 4,1848, Schleswig was accepted into the German Bund. However on May 8,1852, under the pressure of the "European powers", the London Treaty gave both duchies back to Danmark. Schleswig received a constitution on February 15, 1854, and Holstein on June 11, 1854.

The death of King Frederick VII, in 1863, ended the heritage rights of the Danish kings to the Duchies; and the Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg tried to gain power. The German Bund raised war against Danmark, which on October 30, 1864 was forced to hand the Duchies (less Lauenburg) over to the German Bund.From 1864-66 the Duchies were ruled by Austria-Prussia. After the Prussian/Austrian war in 1866 they were made a Prussian province.

In 1864 the border at Konge-Aa was established until 1920. After which a referendum was held, the people in the northern half of Schleswig voted to become part of Danmark; the people in the southern half to join Germany. Thus Schleswig remains split in half to this very day.

(Ivarius Corvinus) Var af gammel bondeæt fra Vilstrupegnen.
Ifølge "Danmarks kirker" har der i Starup Kirke været et nu
forsvundet epitafium med følgende indskrift på latin: "Her ligger
Ivar kaldet Ravn. Men i virkeligheden var han en due. I Starup og
Grarup lærte han de himmelske Kristi trossætninger og forkastede
Pavens tomme drømme. Ren var han og jævn, som man tror at de gamles
slægt har været, retfærdig og overhovedet en gudfrygtig mand".

Note(kopieret fra Norman Lee Madsens database)
Records tell us that Ivar Corvinus/Ravn came from an old farming-family in the area around Vilstrup, located just south of Haderslev. He became the first Lutheran minister for Starup-Grarup parish circa 1533 until 1554; Ivar Ravn died sometime between 1555-1569.

The identity of Ivars's wife seems to be less than certain. According to Bornholms Samlinger II, nr. 17, page. 145, she was Botilla Ivarsdatter (Ancharius?). Another source has her as Botilla Nisdatter Krøger, the daughter of Nicolaus Krøger, alderman (rådmand) and later the mayor (borgmester) of Haderslev.

According to "Danmarks Kirker" there existed a long gone epitaph in Starup Church with the following inscription in Latin:
"Here lies Ivar called Raven -- but in reality he was a Dove. In Starup and Grarup he learned about the heavenly Christian Faith, and renounced the Pope's empty dreams. Pure and Simple he was, like the Families of old, just in all his ways and a God-fearing Man." Note: "ravn" is the danish word for raven.

On possible male descendent of Ivar Ravn:
Arends and Archelis think that Ivar Ravn had a son who was teacher (kantor) for the latin school in Haderslev from 1599-1616, but that is probably not correct according to Edvard Skovgaard. If anything he is possibly Ivar's grandson. He was father to Jens Ravn (1601-66), pastor for Haderslev 1631-44 and for Moltrup-Bjerning 1640-59. Thereafter he went northward, and finally became parish clergyman for Bjert, 1660-65.

Ivar blev gift med Botilla Nisdatter Krøger cirka 1530. Botilla (datter af Nicolaus Krøger) blev født cirka 1510. [Gruppeskema] [Familietavle]

Notater:

I henhold til Norman Lee Madsen er det meget usikkert, at hustruen Botilla var datter af Nicolaus Krøger.
