My Review of the meal served Other than satisfactory and rather exciting, I am in awe of the name SCHWABE and the fact that it is Toledo, OHIO. The Brother maybe a butcher. I had to take care of a little punctuation. I am sure a copy of this letter can be purchased through aida. I think I have seen many familiar surnames in this location of Ohio. So someday maybe another serving.

YOU HAD YOUR CHEESE AND NOW THE WHINE:

I don''t know if they are my Saucke family unless they mixed in with the other Sauckes from Ahndorf and Oldendorf by the Goerde. i have never really known if the Tosterglope and Quickborn Saucke have been ours. Though I did read once, that one of them had a nick name for being up the tree during the time of the war with France 1813 at Steinke's hill. I have no proof, no church records or some other connecting data in regards to a connection. Which I will keep in mind as I take samples.

Quickborn, Das Gesichte des Dorfes

This is only a small part of a large chapter. I shall be adding Buendorf, and Gut Horn. I am not paticularly interested in all the statistics. But It is a way to see the family surnames with a small amount of family history in our buendorf and Quickborn village. Pages like I am showing you do give land history and small doses of family history. I know some of you will enjoy seeing more of the Rosseburg name and any other surname of your interest.

Zweitwohnungen von Grossstädtern, die hier in Ländlicher Umgebung Erholung suchen.

Neben der Aufteilung der Allmende und der Verkoppelung der Ackerfluren gab es im 19. Jahrhundert auch die Ablösung der gutsherrlichen Gefällen. Diese. Ablösung fand in allen deutschen Ländern, in allen dörflichen Gemeinschafen statt, in denen dienstpflichtige Bauern lebten.  Die  Abfindungen konnten durch Landabtretungen erfolgen, durch Zahlung einer Geldsumme oder durch eine Rente. Die Belastung war unterschiedlich und richtete sich nach der Höhe der Verpflichtungen; man wandelte sie in eine Rente um und ließ durch die Zahlung des 25- fachen Betrages der Jahresrente, später auch 18 fachen Betrages, ablösen. Es kam vor, daß in den Dörfern Bauern verschiedenen Herren dienten und daher verschiedene Abgaben zu leisten hatten.

Dieser Treuepflicht des Bauern entsprach seit Jahrhunderten die Fürsorgepflicht des Herrn, der z. B. bei Hausbränden für den Aufbau des Anwesens zu sorgen hatte, usw.. Nach Auflösung der personellen Bindungen war der Bauer frei, mußte aber nun nach eigenem Ermessen wirtschaften.

pp. 102
Aus den Unterlagen des Archives Uffmann gebe ich einen Einblick in eine bäuerliche Familiengeschichte.

...“Gieb wieder was zusammen, Dir in den heissen Flammen So Schleunig Engebüst erfülle dis Begehren wen solches deinen Ehren und unser Wolfahrt dienlich ist Gott Allein die Ehre Den 17.May Anno 1810.
Franz Seedorf Katharina Seedorffen”.

Dieser Vers ziert den Balken an der nördlichen Giebelseite des Bauernhauses.

Genealogie of the Colonist Mosel From Boitzenburg

Since I have developed and interest in the eight colonists who went to Farnhamville; [The county of Calhon, Greene county and the county of Webster.]I decided awhile back to research the family Mosel. Since my dad always included the Mosels into that group. I thought it was best to start in Iowa.

I was lucky to find a person who had already done this. Herr Slotten was kind enough to write to me and give me some information, which I then shared with the Mosel family. I understand that Norma also wrote back to Mr. Slotten.

The Mosel family came from Boitzenberg, Mecklenber-Schwerin which is on the Elbe river in the Hamburg Germany area. It was part of East Germany after the war, The Elbe river was the dividing line.

it might be, but have never asked and Wife does
not know all and her mother has no interest. The only one to stay in
Iowa was Henry. Henry did go up to Minnesota
and see the other members. When Henry died in 1985 only Laura, Carl and
Paul were alive according to his obit.

Emma died in 1900 in Dawson Twp, Greene County, Iowa (Near Paton).
Final citizenship papers for 1901 are also
located in Geene county at the court house in Jefferson. I have a copy
that was made by one of the sisters for me.
The data from Germany was translated by one of the German professors
from Wartburg College, Waverly, Iowa.
I have only the translated data.

Notes
I have only started working with this family, so organization is still in
progress. I was working on my side of the family
and only pulled data for this side because I was in the tapes. I did my
research on Calhoun County at the
Rockwell City library since that is where the geneological data is
located. If you have data that is for 1925,
the state census lists the parents of individuals if they filled it in
correctly which is not allways the case.
The library has tapes for 1870, 1880, 1885,1895,1900,1905,1910,1920, and
1925, They also have the plat
maps and cemetary data plus obituary index plus newspaper tapes. The
Lusmann's are still in Farnhamville
but I have not talked to any of them in a couple of years. Not home long
enough to see everyone unless a scheduled activity since both families are located there. Hopefully this will get some things clear. The answers
to some of your questions will have to be done by the Henry Mosel
sisters, but my mother in law has no interest
in this. I need to find the correct one and probably can get other
data. Still working on updating Family Tree Maker to put all notes in. This is the first effort put into the family so is
taking time to compile. I do know the cousins that
are my age who are the grandchildren of Henry Mosel.
The data for the Seil, Nammany and others will have to wait until I can
view a tape at the FHC if it is still here.> --

Members of the Eight Colonists - Meyer, Heins, Seil , und Luhmann emigrated to Lohrville, Iowa

Welcome to my site about the Colonists from Oldendorf, Nahrendorf who settled around the area of Farnhamville, Iowa.

Some of our ancestors came to America from Eichdorf and Oldendorf. While they lived at Oldendorf, and worked as park rangers in Roethen. They attended the Luth. church at Nahrendorf.

They emigrated to Lohrville, Calhoun county, Iowa. Four years later they moved. In Calhoun county Iowa they attended a church near Farnhamville, Iowa. The church was St. Peters ev. Lutheran church. This picture is of the main street in Farnhamville, Calhoun county, Iowa.



The street looks like any other small town street.

My father said there was a "colony" of eight members, who came from germany to Farnhamville, Iowa. Most of the eight people of the Colony came from Oldendorf.

1. Ernst, Friedrich Luhmann - Eichdorf und Bleckede. Bargmoor- Emigrated april 1892 (Frau Schmidt.)
2. Hch. Saucke - Oldendorf.Emigrated 1883. [Frau - Wolters und Daetz familien name.]
3. Juergen Hch. Wilhelm Meyer - Oldendorf, Rothen. Emigrated Feb. 1884 He worked at Gut Horndorf.
4. Fritz Schroeder - Oldendorf or Nahrendorf.Emigrated 1883.[Frau Mary] Schwester Marie from Duebbekold.
5. Naefke Dick and Dora. Emigrated 1889.
6. August Friedrich Wilhelm Seil - Born * 1848 from Dahlenburg and Gross Thondorf. He labored at Nuedlitz. oo Married Katharine Dorothea Maria Elisabeth Korn. [ Information of family in the Heinrich Porth and Gunda Freisch book of Familienkunde [OFB] Himbergen, Uelzen.] emigrated 1873 ??
7. Juergen Hch. Friederich Meyer - emmigrated from Oldendorf
in April 1869. His father worked at Roethen as a park warden.
8. Henry Seil geb. about *1859. Emigrated 1883. 00 Married Marie Ahrens. Emigrated 1891. Of Oldendorf?? [Nahnsen branch]
...........................................
These people also attended the St. Peters ev. Lutheran church near Farnhamville, Iowa.

Herman Lussman; Heinerich Mosel from Boitzenburg. Schmugge, und Frau # 2- Drinkhahn; Grote- Hagemann. Froelich / Mugge
Henry Dohrmann.
Diedrich (Dick), Ahrens.

Our family became so involved with this area of Iowa through the marriages with the family Nahnsen. I will have more on that at another time. I can give you links if you like. email me. arootdiggerat gmail.com


I will come back and add more about all of these colony members from the church Nahrendorf. Some may have history still to be found through Dannenberg, and the Darchau archives.
...........................................
Some of the people from Oldendorf, Nahrendorf first went to Joliet, Will county, Illinois. Fritz Schroeder and Wilhelm Seil.

The family of Heinrich or Henry Dohrmann also went to Joliet, Will county Illinois.


-Edit this later.-

Colonists Saucke, Naefke, from Nahrendorf church to Farnhamville, Iowa.

Farnhamville residents --- This picture taken in 1916 at the Bandshell in Farnhamville has descendents of some Ancestor members from Oldendorf and other villages surrounding Nahrendorf. Nahnsens were from Schleswig-Holstein, but they married Meyer women from Oldendorf. Mosel go back to Boizenburg, a municipality in the district of Ludwigslust, in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. However, their wives were from the west side of the Elbe. Some Mosels were said to live in Bleckede. Vogels were from Bohemia. Kanning from Nienburg and or Heemsen. [ Minnesota Kanning and Iowa Kannings connect.]

More on names from bandshell in Farnhamville. Members from Nahrendorf church.

Farnhamville, Iowa is a city located in the county of Calhoun and Webster county, near the Greene county border. That is why you find that Greene county settlers attended this church. Many of our relatives lived at Webster county, which is also located near the corner by Calhoun county, Iowa. Fort Dodge, and Guthrie are often mentioned hey are in the county of Webster.

Source: These pictures were taken from a little book about the little town of Farnhamville, which I used, when I was at their county library, which was at Rockville. I wish I could find this book to keep for myself. I will try and see if I can round up the name of the book about the celebration of Farnhamville. It may have been called " Then and Now".

Note: Boizenburg - It is situated on the right bank of the Elbe, 53 km west of Ludwigslust, 25 km northeast of Lüneburg and 50 km east of Hamburg. Old GDR.
