Life

He was born into a peasant family on 2 February 1758, at Altorf near Stuttgart.[1]. At the age of seventeen he claimed to have had a vision lasting for three hours. From that time on he attended Pietist meetings, despite his father's opposition which drove him from his home. He became a preacher, living on the estate of Duchess Frances at Sindlingen near Herrenberg in Württemberg, where he died on 20 January 1819.
