[BKARTS] Was Iohanes Gutenberg married?



Dear members of the list,
   
  Once I was reading about Gutenberg's works (he is pointed as the creator of moving type), but in none of the books that I researched had details about his life or even about the city he lived in.
   
  I ask myself if he had a "normal" life, was married, had children, etc. I can't imagine someone who had the idea of breaking up the natural movement of handwriting into moving type doing anything else than being enclosured in a room studying.
   
  Is there any book talking about this part of the genius?
