Christoph Ludwig Friedrich Heiden
was born on March 19, 1825 to
Johann Jochim Diederich
Heiden and his wife, the former Ilsabe Catharina Sophia
Teschenow. He was a younger brother of
Maria Heiden and,
therefore, uncle to
August Heiden.
On January 27, 1883, Ludwig sent a
letter to his nephew,
August Heiden. He had been living in Sweden (the letter came from Christianstad, Sweden) and
had been married to his
second wife for 20 years at that time. He would have been about
58 at that writing.
From a first marriage, Ludwig had four children which he
described as follows:
- Luise is married to a
tailor in Denmark
- Ferdinand is a Catholic priest in Copenhagen.
- Wilhelm is a tailor and lives in Gorlitz, Silesia.
- And the youngest,
whose mother died when he was 18 months old.
