Re: Kattes

Oh, wait, he was an assistant

Lol, unfinished sentence is totally because I went, "Wait, was he?", wandered off to Kloosterhuis to check dates, got side-tracked, and forgot to come back.

So he was the Brandenburg-Schwedt cousin's "Begleiter" in the second half of 1726 and again at Zeithain in June 1730, but I'm not sure whether that means Schwedt cousin could have been a possible reason for Katte's spring 1730 missions abroad.

(I still wonder what business Hans Heinrich had sent Hans Hermann to Paris on in 1728. Perhaps prinzsorgenfrei's Wust connections will one day turn up the answer!)
