BIRTH-MARRIAGE-DEATH: ANCESTRY & DESCENDANTS OF NASSAU-SIEGEN IMMIGRANTS OF VA, 1714-1750, by B.C. Holtzclaw.; ; copy from Chapter 9 of text found in book in Florida; EXTRACTION: Henry attended the Gymnasium or Latin School at Siegen and from there went to the Herborn Paedogogium for further training. Johann Heinrich Haeger studied theology and on September 25, 1678, his 34th birthday, was appointed the third teacher in the Latin school at Siegen and continued until 1689 when he was promoted to the position of Conrector or associate director of the school. Some of the members of his Reformed Lutheran church were among the first Palatines to sail to Rottrerdam and then on to New York. On April 3, 1711, Johann Heinrich received permission to retire from the pastorate because of ill health. Johann Heinrich did not spend all of his time teaching. Jacque Pineton de Chambrun, a cousin of William III of England and court preacher at Orange in France, was arrested in 1685. He suffered many hardships in prison but eventually escaped to Holland where he was protected by William of Orange, later King of England. He wrote in French an account of the sufferings of himself and his fellow Protestants. Johann Heinrich Haeger translated this work to German, at the request of Count William Morrice of Nassau-Siegen, a cousin of William III of England. It was titled "Story of Rev. Jacque Pineton de Chambrun". Johann Heinrich was later rewarded by a promotion to the pastorate at Oberfischbach for his work on this book. In 1714, he and his wife and two daughters, Elisabeth and Agnes, emigrated to the New World, where he became the first reformed minister in Virginia. His son, Rev. Johann Friederich, was already there.
