Hinrich Niejahr
Claus Nieuwejaar (1752-1829), the patriarch of the Norwegian Nieuwejaar family, immigrated from Mecklenburg in North-East Germany. A Dutchman - Martin Nieuwjaar, who has in vain tried to establish a connection between his family and the Norwegian one, has provided us with most of the information we possess. From an archive in Wustrow, Mecklenburg he received the following info: Hinrich Niejahr, married 9.10.1716, had a son Carl Jochim Hinrich Niejahr, bapt. 23.4.1718, mar. 1743, C.J.H. had 4 daughters and 2 sons: Hinrich and Claus (bapt. 1755)
