Johann Martin Boltzius (Bolzius) (1703-1765) served as pastor of the Salzburger Lutheran congregation at New Ebenezer from 1735 until 1765 and was largely responsible for its success. Boltzius was a vocal opponent of slavery. Much more background on this Georgia pioneer can be found at the New Georgia Encyclopedia.
You should attend the Salzburger Days event, every Labor Day.Lots of history and living history displays.
Sounds like fun, Linda!
