     Abraham ten Bruggencate was born in Almelo.2 Abraham was baptized (NH) on 20 Sep 1781 in Almelo.1 He married Benjamina Margaretha Siricius.2 He died on 5 Jun 1828 in St. Petersburg, Russia. He died of tuberculosis.2 He was buried on 27 May 1828 in the Smolensk Cemetery in St. Petersburg.2

Other information:

     His signature (as A. or Ab. ten Bruggencate) appears bt 1815 - 1822 several times in the council notes of the Dutch Reformed Church in St. Petersburg2 Benjamina Margaretha Siricius was probably of German descent. The death of a son of Carl Friedrich Siricius, the witness at the baptism of Carl Nicholas, is listed in the German Lutherse churchbook in St. Petersburg. Carl Friedrich could be a brother of Benjamina; and this makes the connection with the Lutheran Maria Magdalena reasonable.3

Name variants:
Abraham ten Bruggencate is most likely the father of Maria Magdalena Bruggenkat. Even though she is Lutheran, it seems unlikely that there would be two different Abrahams in St. Petersburg.
