Peter Havptman

In memoriam

Peter Havptman (or Hauptman) served as the parish priest in Dobrova from 1914 to 1934. He was born in Vaèe on 27 June 1863 and ordained on 26 August 1889. Before coming to Dobrova he served in Èrni Vrh near Idrija (1889-1893) and in Stari Trg pri Ložu (1893-1914). He became the parish administrator in Stari Trg pri Ložu in 1902 following the death of Father Anton Ponikvar (1837-1902); however, his social and political engagement resulted in government opposition to him being named parish priest. He resigned as parish administrator of Stari Trg pri Ložu in December 1911 and lived in Dane, until he was appointed parish priest of Dobrova on 13 November 1914. He died in Dobrova on 9 October 1934 and was buried on 11 October 1934. (source: http://zupnije.rkc.si/stari-trg-pri-lozu/pdf/Predstavitev.pdf, page 62, 65)
