THE BACH FAMILY --- Johann Ambrosius Bach



 the next one in line is Johann Ambrosius Bach (1645-1695), he is identical with the famous Quaker, whose head still today graces the oatmeal cereal box.. he was son to sir admiral william Penn, and founded Pennsylvania...from then on the state would be run by him and his descendants...back then the US of A was not yet proclaimed, that would happen round 100 years later.. so they called themselves "chief proprietors" of the state of pennsylvania... all of these great men had alters as composers of the Bach family, who was really a composite construct... (or their royal alters are a composite, which ever way you wanna perceive it..)
 so this Quaker (a religious movement that wanted to pursue christian faith without being subordinate to clergy, sitting in silence and "quaking", shivering, trying to receive promptings of the holy spirit...thats why they´re called Quakers, not because they made noises like frogs or tadpoles...)..so this man already was father of Johann Sebastian Bach... the centerpole of this whole ceries..
i have hardly enough time to get the wikipedia data, no time for fancy artwork... lets continue on..
