Stephen, 1. colonists were settlers from mainly the south of Germany who were called into the duchy Schleswig to make bogs and heathland arable, and they came in trecks between 1760 and 1765. But also people of Mecklenburg and other parts of Schleswig or Holstein settled. They received land for free, seedcorn, tools, timber, firewood, interest free loans, and some animals. The task they were expected to do was a hopeless one, and many fled once they realized what they were in for. 2. Abnehmer : a retired person, mainly someone who has formerly owned land or a cottage and has handed it over to the younger generation. 3. Anna Catharina J. was apparently the daughter of a daughter of Jacob Diederich S. and a man called Juergensen. 4. no apparent relationship between the Abnehmer and Hinrich Grehn. They just lived together under one roof.
