- "Die Leichenpredigten des Stadtarchivs Braunschweig" tells us that Matthaeus Cregaeus was the "Superintendent" (Dean) for Stargarder Land and "Pfarrer" (Priest) for St. Marien Church in Neubrandenburg, in 1608 he oversaw construction to house a new organ, at a cost of 8000 guilder, which was unfortunately destroyed in the great fire of 1675; he was married to Anna Leniken.
The Duchy of Mecklenburg-G?strow (later named Mecklenburg-Strelitz) is a "Kreis" (district) in the southern part of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The district-free city Neubrandenburg is nearly completely surrounded by the district. The Lordship of Stargard (Stargarder Land) is an "Amt" in the district of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The seat of Stargarder Land is in Burg Stargard. The Amt (plural, ?mter) is unique to the German Bundesl?nder (federal states) of Schleswig-Holstein, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Brandenburg. An Amt, as well as the other above-mentioned units, is subordinate to a district, and is subdivided into municipalities. The Amt is lower than county-level government, but higher than municipal government, and may be described as a supra-municipality or "municipal confederation." Normally it consists of very small municipalities; larger municipalities do not belong to an amt, and are called "Amtsfreie Gemeinden (Amt-free municipalities). The Amt Stargarder Land consists of the following municipalities: Burg Stargard, Cammin, C?lpin, Gro? Nemerow, Holldorf, Lindetal, Pragsdorf and Teschendorf.
From "Die Pastoren im Lande Stargard seit der Reformation" (The pastors in Stargard district since the Reformation) by Georg Kr?ger, Verein f?r Mecklenburgische Geschichte und Altertumskunde: Jahrb?cher des Vereins f?r Mecklenburgische Geschichte und Altertumskunde, pub. 1904, vol. 69, pp. 1-270:
1604-1638: Magister Christian B?ckeler, Konrektor zu Neubrandenburg, wurde vociert 1604 Januar 14 und durch Superintendent Cregaeus eingef?hrt auf Quasimodogenti. Gestorben 1638. - Ob er ein Bruder war des Pfarrer in R?hlow? - Der Friedl?nder Pfarrer Friedrich ist sein Sohn. [seite 44]
The above translated to English:
1604-1638: Master Christian B?ckeler, vice principal in Neubrandenburg, was mentioned in January 14, 1604 and introduced on Quasimodogeniti [April 15] by Dean [Matthaeus] Cregaeus. Died in 1638. - Possibly he was a brother of the pastor in R?hlow? - Friedrich, the pastor for Friedland, is his son. [page 44]
1639-1670: Johann Cregaeus, geboren zu Pritzwalk 1599 M?rz 14, Sohn des sp?teren Superintendent Matthias in Neubrandenburg, studium in Greifswald, Pfarrer in Gevezin 1628. Vor Krieg und Pest fl?chtete er 1637 nach Neubrandenburg, wo er seine Frau an der Seuche verlor. Zwei Jahre lebte er dort im Exil und vikarierte an der Klosterkirche. "Er hat keine Mittel und Zehrpfennig, das Seine, was er an Kleidern und andern Gutes gehabt, haben ihm die Soldaten alles genommen", sagt der Superintendent 1639 von ihm in einem Empfehlungsschreiben, in dem er seinen stillen, eingezogenen Wandel r?hmt. Im selben Jahre erlangte er die Pfarre in Neddemin. Bei der Visitation 1664 gaben Pastor und Gemeinde einander ein gutes Zeugnis, und trotzdem Pfarrer durch Alter etwas unverm?gend war, waren die Visitatoren mit dem Examen zufrieden. "Das Pfarrhaus all hie ist sehr alt und bauf?llig, hat Mangel an den Sohlen, also da? es sehr versackt, auch sonst einwendig an Stuben und Kammern geringe, auch fast gef?hrlich ist, sonderlich das Strohdach, so nach dem Kirchhof eine Kuhlunge hat, so auf die Stube gehet und nimmer dichte halten will, also da? der Pastor nicht trocken in seiner Stube sitzen kann, wie denn auch das ganze Haus an sich enge und behende ist." gestorben 1670 Februar 18.

1639-1670: Johann Cregaeus, born in Pritzwalk on March 14, 1599, son of the late Dean Matthias of Neubrandenburg, studied in Greifswald, a Pastor in Gevezin in 1628. Because of the war and plague in 1637 he fled to Neubrandenburg, where he lost his wife to disease. For two years he lived in exile and served as a pastor at the Klosterkirche. "He has no money or funds, other than what was with him, his clothes and other goods, the soldiers gave him everything," says the dean of him in a letter of recommendation from 1639, wherein he praises his calm, he gained renown. In the same year he received the rectory in Neddemin. An inspection in 1664 the pastor and congregation gave each other a good report, yet still the pastor was not satisfied, as the inspection report shows. "The presbytery here is very old and dilapidated, the floor is damaged, to the extent that it subsides, also objected to other rooms and chambers, is also quite dangerous, especially the thatched roof, beyond the cemetery is a cold-storage chamber, and his room never keep's tight, so that the pastor can not sit in his room dry, although the house itself is strong and sturdy." He died on February 18, 1670. [page 109]
