Christine Elisabeth Heilmann is the daughter of Johann Georg Heilmann, Isenburg-Secretarius in Birstein, and Maria Margaretha Gruner. She married Friedrich Grimm "the Younger" who was a German Evangelical Reformed Pastor. Friedrich and Christine are the Paternal Grandparents of the Brothers Grimm.

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.

Christine Elisabeth Heilmann-Grimm died in 1754 of childbed fever. Her death struck the family extremely hard. She was interred in the crypt of St. Catherine's Church between the altar and pulpit.

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.
