Biography
Ulrich I was probably born before 1382 and reigned only together with his brother John II and Albert I ( † 1397 ). In 1408, he shared with his brother Johann the country and got Neubrandenburg, Burg Stargard, Strelitz and Wesenberg ( with Lize ). The former he made his residence. On March 19, 1417 he is said to have made at the castle Strelitz his will and died three weeks later on April 8, 1417th There was a rumor that he got poison. Ulrich I should then have been buried to Wanzka. This seems credible because his only daughter was abbess at the monastery. He was with Margerete, daughter of the Duke Swantibor III. ( I.) of Pomerania -Stettin married.
