Flacius’ son from his first marriage. He is mentioned in Flacius’ letter to Nicholaus Gallus from 1564, when Andreas was ill (see Preger II, 235).
During the spring of 1574 he travelled to Lower Silesia from Frankfurt via Mansfeld and Berlin with his father (See Preger II, p. 521). In Silesia Matthias Flacius held a theological disputation with Jacob Coler and his son kept the minutes. Buschbek claims that it was Daniel who traveled with Matthias at that time (see Hermann Buschbek, ‘Des Matthias Flacius Illyricus Religionsgespräche auf Burg Lehnhaus und Scloβ Langenau im Jahre 1574’, Jahrbuch des Vereins fűr Schlesische Kirchengeschischte 24 (1934):11). |

According to Buschbeck (see Buschbeck, 11), Daniel was the second son of Matthias and Elisabeth Flacius.
In May 1574 he was present at the disputations between Matthias Flacius and Jacob Coler in Lower Silesia (present-day Poland), where he recorded the proceedings (see Buschbeck, 11).
He enrolled at the University of Basel in May 1579 as “Daniel Flaccius Magdeburgensis, Mathiae Ilirici filius.” According to this he was born in Magdeburg. In 1581 he graduated with a bachelor’s degree and later received a master’s degree as well (Wackernagel, 267).
On 10 March 1575 Daniel called pastors Hartman Beyer and Matthias Ritter to serve the Holy Communion to his father on his deathbed (Preger II, 525).

He was born in Regensburg, most likely from Flacius’ marriage with his second wife, Magdalena Ilbeck (they got married 23 October 1564).
In 1597 he became liberalium artium studiousus in Wolfenbüttel.
Two of his letters from 1597 can be found in the Regensburg city archives, in which he is requesting a birth certificate and written verification of his legitimate birth (Mirković, 1960, p. 215). |
