Translations:Sebastian Conrad Eckart (IV)/2/en
Sebastian Conrad Eckart helped his father in his inn and bakery already from a young age. In June 1717, he married the well-to-do Ursula Züll (*before 1691 in Langenzenn; †1775 in Langenzenn). Her father, Sixtus Züll, was councilman as well as owner of the inn "Zum Roten Ochsen" (The Red Ox) and other considerable estates. Following his death, these estates were transferred to Sebastian Conrad Eckart. Even prior to inheriting the Red Ox inn, Sebastian Conrad had purchased the inn "Zur Krone" (The Crown), considered one of the largest town houses in Langenzenn at that time.[1] A report of September 10, 1738, states that Sebastian Conrad Eckart was not only a baker, but also a councilman, and that he was admitted to the millers’ and flour traders’ guild as a life-long member.[2] He died in September 1748. The death registry states: "Mr. Sebastian Conrad Eckart, late councilman, baker and brewer, taken to the peace of his grave in his 61st year with due honors."[3] His wife Ursula continued to run the Crown inn up until her death in 1775. Sebastian Conrad Eckart had ten children, among them his son Johannes Eckart.
