There is lots of information on these surnames from the Probstei area of Schleswig-Holstein on FHL microfilm #1181853 "Probsteier Geschlecterbuch" by Guenter Fincke. If you go online to the Mormon website, familysearch.org, you can find the Family History Center nearest you. Go there, order the microfilm from Salt Lake; when it arrives, study it at the Family History Center. I learned lots about my husband's lineage from this 'film. You don't have to be a Mormon--I'm not. Good luck.
