Notes
a. Note:   During the Middle Ages Altenhof was in the territory of the Abbacy of Fulda until 1752 when it became the Bishopric of Fulda. Information about what happened after 1803 is a bit confusing, but it seems that during the infamous Secularisation of 1803 the territory came into the possession of Electorate of Hesse until 1807 when it became part of the Kingdom of Westphalia. In 1813 the Electorate of Hesse was restored. In 1866 it became part of the Prussian Province of Hesse-Nassau. (At some point it may have been part of Bavaria) In 1946 the modern state of Hesse was formed. Altenhof was in Landkreis Gersfeld 1867-1932 and since 1932 it has been in Landkreises Fulda. Altenhof was incorporated into Gemainde Ebersburg in 1972. In 1910 the population of Altenhof was 157, in 1925 the population was 172, in 1933 the population was 175 and in 1939 the population was 161.
