Dotty, It says that he is a worker in the town of Rhardum, Jever Parish. This place is actually in Ostfriesland. My map shows a village of Rahrdum (as spelled on the map) about 1 km south of the town of Jever. You can learn about Warfsmann, Colonists, etc. from the Ostfriesien Mailing List and associated websites. See their FAQ and/or search their list archives.
