1	Heinrich Conrad Ipkendanz

Heinrich Conrad Ipkendanz was born in about June 1736 ², probably in Peine in Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany. He died on December 21, 1788 in Gadenstedt, Peine, Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany ².

He went by his middle name, Conrad. Conrad was a soldier who fought in the Seven Years' War and was discharged in 1768 ². After that, he apparently moved to Gadenstedt, where he married a widow named Rosina Pullman. They had one son, but he also had at least two stepchildren (probably from his wife's first marriage). He died from an ulcer ².

Previous researchers had her last name listed as Himstedt, but that was a misreading of the parish registers. Her surname was Munstedt. She was previously married to Johann Heinrich Pullman, who had died before 1765. She also had a relationship with a man named Christoph Homann, with whom she had an illegitimate daughter in 1765 (the daughter died in 1772). When Rosina died, she was survived by three sons. One of them was her documented son Johann Heinrich Christoph Uepkendanz (below), and the other two were either sons of her first husband John Heinrich Pullman, or perhaps by another man (such as Christoph Homann). Rosina died of a bilious fever / gallblader fever ².

Father: Johann Heinrich Christoph Uepkendanz
Mother: Catharina Sophia Dorothea Baarmann

She died sometime after 1870, because she was described as a survivor when her husband died in February 1870. Most likely she died after 1875, because her name is not in the Oedelum Burial Registers (which are extant through 1875).
