	Age 7, Anna Maria is a 1st Grader under Lehrer Herbert Polking {b.1750] 1772 is the 1st year that the Sudlohne 1-Room School is open since 1702 when Lehrer Heinrich Sudbeck was the "teacher". There has been no school in Sudlohne for 70 years and this of course means that Anna Maria's parents and grandparents had no formal schooling.

Wedding date - Church	28 Nov 1786	St Gertrud's Katholic Kirch, Lohne, Gr.
	Today, at age 22, I marry Herbert Krogmann, age 30.
A Marriage without a male heir	7 Jul 1792	Kleinefortmann Farm Sudlohne
	Two days ago, 5 Jul 1792, I was graced with my 4th daughter Katherina. Herbert is very disappointed at our not having a son to assist him in later years. This shall be my last child and in 12 years I shall pass from this world; even before my Father Herman Heinrich. At age 28, with no further children this suggests: A) times were very economically harsh...B) Herbert was no longer allowed in the bedroom.....a common form of birth control in these times, or C) baby Catherine's recent delivery was very difficult. The norm of the times would suggest a higher probability for A & C.
Parents death date, ages	23 Sep 1803	Kleinefortmann Farm Sudlohne
	Mother, Anna Elizabeth [Kathmann] KeinefFortmann at age 64 has died. I shall follow Mother in a little moire than 9 months at age 40.
Lease Rights of 1st Born Son	5 Jul 1804	Kleinefortmann Farm Sudlohne
	In 3 days I shall die and my father shall outlive me by 2 1/2 years. I have no Sons by Herbert and thus the Lease Land-Rights shall pass to my eldest daughter Katharina Maria upon my father Hermann Heinrich's death on 25 Feb 1807.
