Friedrich Grimm "the Younger" was a German Evangelical Reformed Pastor and Paternal Grandfather of the Brothers Grimm.
Friedrich Grimm "the Younger" studied at the High State School in Hanau, the Ruprecht-Karls-University of Heidelberg and the school Illustre in Bremen. From March 1730 he was the active Pastor at the St. Catherine's Church in Steinau an der Strasse for 47 years until his death. Friedrich Grimm the younger married Christine Elisabeth Heilmann on October 6, 1734. She was born October 22, 1715, in Birstein, and died February 17, 1754 in Steinau. Her father, Georg Heilmann, was first in the service of the house of Isenburg-Birstein and was later Hofgerichtsrat in the county of Hanau-Münzenberg and city mayor of Old Town Hanau.
The couple had seven sons and three daughters, of which, however, eight died as children or adolescents. One of the sons, Karl Friedrich Grimm (1738-1772), in turn, became a minister, studied from 1757 in Marburg and was last from 1770 to 1772 pastor of the Reformed Church in Hanau.
The death of his wife Christine Elisabeth Heilmann in 1754 of childbed fever hit the family extremely hard. She was interred in the crypt of St. Catherine's Church between the altar and pulpit. Until his own death in 1777, he attended every Sunday and on holidays his wife's grave.
Grimm Family History Descendants:
Juliane Charlotte Frederike Grimm (1735-1796), nee Schlemmer, "Aunt Schlemmer"
Philipp Wilhelm Grimm (1751-1796), father of the Brothers Grimm.
Juliane Charlotte Frederike Grimm took over after the death of their mother, the education of the surviving younger brothers and sisters.
Friedrich Grimm the Younger was in 1777 buried in the new cemetery in Steinau outside the church, where his surviving children placed him a handsome grave stone. The grave stone in 1997, for reasons of much needed restoration and conservation, was transferred to the St. Catherine's Church, where he can be visited today. The graves of the Grimm family there in the cemetery outside the church are now all destroyed.
