Overview
According to his Immanual Lutheran biography, Johann Heinrich Philipp Bleeke was born
zu Leeteln (Leteln), Kanton Windheim, Kreis Minden, Königr[eich] Preussen
in Leteln, in the canton of Windheim, the district of Minden, and the kingdom of Preußen (Prussia), and he emigrated in 1834 to the U.S.; however, this was written many years after his birth in 1797, when the Canton system introduced by Napolion did not exist.
