Surname interest of the day - Rieckens, Meyer familie
Ort - Dahlenburg
Dahlenburg befürchtete den Durchzug der geschlagenen französischen Truppen. die Bürger hatten ihre Habseligkeiten gepackt und waren auf Flucht vorbereitet. Doch die Franzosen wurden nach Bleckede abgedrängt, und so passierten nur einige Versprengte in aller Eile den Ort.
Nach dem Abzug der Franzosen belastete die Einquartierung der Truppen der Verbündeten weiter die Bevölkerung. Die Amtsvogtei Dahlenburg mußte 8000 Mann und 1500 Pferde des russischen Grafen Tolstoj unterbringen und verpflegen. Graf Tolstoj nahm Quartier beim Amtsvogt und Bürgermeister Buhlert in Dahlenburg. Buhlert berichtete, daß die Vogtei insgesamt in dieser Zeit 210 000 Soldaten versorgte. Die Soldaten waren ewig hungrig und immer auf der Jagd nach etwas Eßbarem, dabei kam es oft zu übergriffen, denn auch die Bürger, ja selbst die Bauern litten Not. Man vergrub Geld und Wertgegenstände und brachte gefährdete Familienmitglieder in Sicherheit. Paula Dibbern, geb Jenrich, überlieferte z. B., daß die Mutter ihrer Ur-Urahnin Rieckens in einer mit Brettern und Strauchwerk getarnten Erdhöhle im Garten vor dem Zugriff der Kosacken versteckt gehalten wurde. Das Haus Rieckens [Meyer] stand dort, wo Schuhhaus Dau errichtet wurde.
After the withdrawal of the French billeting of troops of the allies added further to the population. The Amtsvogtei Dahlenburg had to accommodate and cater for 8,000 men and 1,500 horses of the Russian Count Tolstoy. Count Tolstoy took up his quarters at the Office Vogt and Mayor Buhlert in Dahlenburg. Buhlert reported that the Bailiwick supplied a total of 210 000 soldiers at that time. The soldiers were forever hungry and always on the hunt for something to eat, besides, it was often overlapped, because the citizens, and even the peasants toiling.
They buried money and valuables and vulnerable family members brought to safety. Paula Dibbern, born Jenrich, traditional z. B. that the mother of her great-ancestor Rieckens was held in a camouflaged with boards and shrubbery hole in the ground in the garden before accessing the Cossacks hidden. The house Rieckens [Meyer] stood where shoe Dau house was built.

Hhmmmm "where shoe house Dau was built". What could that mean?. I'll have to save that for another day.

Take care!
