* Nagykapos, between 1630–1635 – † Transylvania ?, February 1674 ? / doctor, Reformed priest ; ; He studied in Utrecht from 1654, where he obtained a medical degree. In the meantime, he also studied at the universities of Groningen from 1656 and Franeker from 1657. He was a pastor in Nagykapos from 1668, while he was the physician of the Transylvanian Chancellor Mihály Teleki. He had already come into conflict with the re-Catholicization efforts, and in 1670 he left Nagykapos due to the harassment of Zsófia Báthori and the Drugeth. He fled to Transylvania, joined the movement of the Kurucs in hiding, and was in the circle of István Bocskai, the former chief magistrate of Zemplén County, who also fled to Transylvania because he had participated in the Wesselényi-like organization. His eulogies, poems of welcome, and sermons have survived, many of which have a public impact.
