Var 1640 rådmand i Rønne, og som sådan underskrev han byen
hyldningsakt af 26/6 1648.

1629 - 1630 Byfoged i Rønne, Rådmand 1640 og 48

Morten Bohn is recorded as being town bailiff (Byfoged) for Rønne in
1629/30. His name is inscribed onto the christening font in Rønne
Church as councillor for Rønne township (købstad) in 1644. And again
documents from 1648 show us that Morten Bohn was still a councilman,
as he signed himself as such. Until the middle of the1800s a
gravestone was kept inside Rønne Church bearing the following
inscription: "I pray for release to be with Christ. This stone and
place belong to Morten Bone, his wife, children and heirs. In the
year . . . . March 19, Morten Bone died, citizen of Rønne, and lies
buried. . . . . September . . . . died Jørgen Mortensen. . . . . 7
August died Elisabeth Mortensdatter, may God grant them a joyous
Resurrection together with all true Believers." The bottom of the
stone was marked simply: M.B. and K.M.D., it was also embellished
with a carving of the four Evangelists, and hourglass and a skull.
Unfortunately, all the gravestones were removed from the church and
destroyed by neglect - for a long period they were laid down in a
path around the churchyard, and the inscriptions became impossible to
decipher. Around 1870 they were cut into small pieces for the fence
around the churchyard.
