Notities over Christian Nicolai Engelhard von Abo

Christian Nicolai Abo, born Molde, Norway in the Diocese of Tronheim on 18th March 1718, was the son of a judge's assistant and gaoler in Bergen in Norway. In 1745 he married Anna Erlandsdatter Fieldberg (1721 to 1812) who was the widow of the curate Lars Werloe. Christian Nicolai spent his career with the Navy. In 1743 Christian Nicolai was employed as a "Monthly" Lieutenant on board the man-of-war "Princess Louise" and in 1744 he was employed as an Enlist­ment Officer in the district of Bergen. In 1755 he was promoted to First Lieutenant and transferred to Egersund and then to Mandel. He remained with the Navy and by 1761 was on the man-of-war “Fyen”. In 1771 he was Chief of Enlistment in the district of Christiansend and in 1778, the Enlistment Officer at Stavanger. He remained there for the rest of his life and in March 1789 he is recorded as the Chief of Enlistment and First Pilot in the district of Stavanger. Presumably with 8 children he needed to remain employed because by this time he was 72 years old and in fact died on 20th July 1789 while still in service.

 

The name shown in the Danish records is without the "von" or “van” which appears in the South African records. There is no evidence of its use in any of the Danish documents, including copies of letters signed by Töger Abo himself. It is possible that his son Christian Johannes adopted its use, when he arrived in South Africa years later.
