Note: Feb 12 translation of the baptismal record:
Birth 16 Feb 1827, baptism 17 Feb 1827: Herm Henrich. Vicar: Busse (performed the) baptism; Parents: Joseph Hugebak Heuerling (farmer or farm worker) in Ellenstette (Ellenstedt), and Maria Elisabeth Muhle. Catholic. Godparents: Herm Henrich Meyer Vollerbe ("full heritage" - see explanation below) in Ellenstette (Ellenstedt); and Catharina Maria Jansen, Bernd Henrich Muhle Heuerlings (farms or farm workers) in Visbek, wife. Catholic.
Vollerbens - Full Heritage: Since olden days, according to size and entitlement in the common land ("Mark"), there were different classes of farms. There were wholly inherited farms ("gehele", ganze Erben, Ganzerben), half-shares (halbe Erben) and cottages (Kotten). Already Tacitus stated that holdings were divided up differently according to one's standing in society, Certainly in Charles, the Great's time there existed divided farms, half-inheritances (halbe Erben) and cottages (Kotten). In the later Middle Ages, many properties were split up. Divisions took place even in modern times despite official prohibition as in the Cloppenburg administration, as well as in Vechta, namely in the Municipalities of Twistringen and Steinfeld. It would be going too far to think that the term "half-inheritance" ("halbe Erbe") always denotes a division. There are many "half-inheritance" (halberbige) farms which could never have been subject to a splitting up. It would also be incorrect to assume that the area of a half-inheritance (Halberben) is half the area of a full inheritance (Ganzerbe). The difference is very often only slight. Most likely, half-inheritors (Halberben) are of more recent origin than full-inheritors (Ganzerben) and the lesser entitlement in the common land (Mark) can probably be traced back to this. Still in 1746 in the parish of Garrel, where these conditions prevailed the longest, there were 2 cottager (Halbk?tter) as "half-inheritors" (Halberben), six "Brinksitzer" as 1/3 inheritors, 18 sharecroppers (Anbauer) as 1/6 inheritors and were given rights as to how many cattle each was entitled to graze in the common land (Mark) and the extent to which he could be called on to pay tax to the village. In time the following social levels were formed in the Muenster district of Vechta: whole farms (ganze einpfl?gige Erbe), half farms (halbe einpfl?gige Erbe),small farms or horse farms (Erbk?tter or Pferdek?tter), farms (Gemeine K?tter),small farms at the edge of the village near a hill (Brinksitzer), day laborer or gardener (H?usler or G?rtner) in the district of Cloppenburg Brinkligger. In Osnabr?ck one differentiates the levels as; full farms (Vollerben), half farms (Halberben), cottagers (Erbk?tter), county farms, cottages in the common land (Mark) (Markk?tter). In Diepholz as full farms (Vollmeier), half farms (Halbmeier), cottager (K?tter), and Feurersteller. Day laborers (H?usler) and Feuersteller had no basic rights in the county. At the beginning of the Oldenburg time, the social levels were merely formed with the consideration of the rights of the people of the common (Mark). Many Halberben during the munster time moved up into the class of the Vollerben and received the same rights in the common land (Mark), thus committing themselves to doing what ever work necessary. For example, in L?sche it happened that the farmers who had been allowed to move up to the higher social level decreased, because of the increase of duties in the lower class. After the break up of the common land (Mark) and the removal of the unity of farms, the different social levels lost their meaning.
