  Occupation: Councilman (Rådmand) for Note (Kopieret juli 2019 fra Norman Lee Madsens database) In Hübertz papers (no. 227) is reproduced a maritime inquiry of November 25, 1568, when pirates boarded Claus Clausen's ship, a burgher from Rønne, but let it pass because Lübeck Captain Schweder Ketting's daughter was on board. This Claus Clausen is assumed to be of the family Kames; however, other than the given name Claus, there appears to be no solid evidence to support the assumption that Claus Kamiz (-1558?-1584-) and Claus Clausen (-1568-) are in fact the same person. According to "Borgmesterslægten Hartwig på Bornholm", (by K. Thorsen, 1943, Personalhistorisk Tidsskrift), Claus Kames was a Merchant (Købmand) and ship owner (skibsreder) in Rønne in 1558 and 1568, and later Alderman (Rådmand) in Rønne in 1584 when he was one of the delegates from all over Denmark were sent to Lund, in Skåne province, to elect Prince Christian's (IV) as heir-apparent on July 20, 1584. Records from this time tell that the following delegates were sent to represent the citizens of Rønne: "Michel Herttuig, Borgemester, Esbern Kofod og Claus Kamiz, Raadmænd." Claus Kames' widow, Margrethe, died on May 10, 1593. Mention of Claus Kames in the probate of his descendant Dorothea Pedersdatter Kofoed, October 1, 1696, page 153: Anno 1696 den 1 October er efter loulig giorde tillysning, holden registering og vurdering, sampt schifte of deehling efter Peder Hansenss. hustru Dorethea Peder Koefoedz daatter, som boede, og døde paa den 22Jord Eiendoms gaard beliggende udi Nykier Sogn. . . en skee med Claus Kam paa 1584 vegtig til 6 Mk. . . . Mention of the above silver spoon (sølv ske) engraved Claus Kames in the probate for Peder Hansen, March 2, 1711, page 141: Anno 1711 dend 2 Marty, er efter loulig giorde tillysning holden rigtig registering og vurdering sampt skifte og liqvidation efter sal. Peder Hansøn som boede og døde paa den 22de Jordejendoms gaard i Aaen i Nyeker Sogn. . . sølf skee med 2 stempel paa teigned paa dend eene side paa skafted KLAUS KAM 1584 vejer 2 laad. . . . The above "Claus Kam" of 1584 must be the same man who paid for the casting of a new bell for Aae Church, the inscription on the bell reads (translated from Low German): "1584 Claus Kames asked for me to be castat Maties Benni[n]ck's at the behest of the whole of Aae Church's congregation on Bornholm".
