In 1495 Johannes Munten, "consul regie vrbis Aquisgrani" (that is, city councillor of the imperial city of Aachen), together with his wife Maria Bestoltz commissioned a Book of Hours from Theodericus Clocker of Aachen; the illuminated manuscript is now in the Bodleian Library at Oxford. According to Aachen genealogist Hermann Macco, on 22 March 1498 Johannes bought a house at Kleiner Dobach in Aachen; this house was sold again 1526 by his daughter Anna.8 |
| On 20 March 1509 Hans and his brother Adam Münth were granted a non-noble coat-of-arms by the Holy Roman Emperor; the exact description of this coat-of-arms has not been preserved, but it is likely to be a version of the coat-of-arms later granted to Johannes's great-grandson Cornelius Münth in 1626 (that is, a Saint Andrew's Cross in the upper half and three balls or coins in the lower half).9 |
