| Lease Rights of 1st Born Son | 8 Jul 1804 | Mother's death, inheritance of Lease Rights, Kl.Fortmann Farm |
| Mother, Anna Maria died today at age 40. She bore no Sons and thus on 25 Feb 1807, I, at age 18, will inherit the Lease Rights to the Kleine Farm. My Grandfather Herman Heinrich age 74, shall die on that date. My Father Herbert Krogmann cannot inherit these rights as the Lease with the Lord passes only through the KleineFortmann line. I shall need as much help as I can muster in this undertaking and so I shall marry Franz Ludewig Landwehr. | ||

| Age 74, Grandfather Herman Heinrich, b. 24 Jun 1732, holder of the Lease Land Rights dies. His heir to the rights is his Granddaughter, Katharina Maria age 18 since his eldest daughter Anna Maria KleineFortmann Krogmann died 2 1/2 years ago. | ||

| Earlier this year Napolian Bonapart and his court captured and now rule this area. He calls himself "King of Westphalia" {1807 to 1813.) Our Hannover Bishop is no longer is charge. We have a French Bishop but here in Sudlohne our local Priest is still a German and today he will marry Franz Ludewig Landwehr and me in St Gertrud's. | ||
| Parents death date, ages | 29 Dec 1827 | St Gertrud's Catholic Church |
| Our Beloved Rev Pastor Bernard Heinrich Topp has died today at age 98. He was born Dec 4th 1729 and served us as Priest and Pastor from 1766 to 1808, some 42 years. He baptized, married and buried many of us Fortmann's of Sudlohne. | ||
| Died | 7 Jan 1834 | Kleinefortman Farm, Sudlohne, Vecta (District) Oldenburg Duchy, Germany |
| Parents death date, ages | 9 Jan 1834 | Kleinefortmann Farm Sudlohne |
| At age 46 Katharina Maria leaves this world. Her oldest Son Johann Heinrich shall inherit the Land Lease Rights. He is the First KleineFortmann male to inherit in 83 years. His Great Grandfather Herman being the last. In 5 years [age 24] he shall sell it all and immigrate to Grosse Point, IL. with his younger brother Clemens and older sister Anna Maria. Obviously the KleineFarm for some 640 years no longer offered the best economic opportunity. Perhaps previous debt is to big a burden. Crops and pigs may be insufficient to continue. America beckons. | ||

| Photos | | Crest: The Kleine FORTMANN VORTMANN Family Origin: 1200's, Sudlohne, Oldenburg Duchy, Germany located abt 65 miles South of the Baltic Sea, between the Weser and the Ems River in the marshy lowlands 80 miles East of Holland. ........Note the raft carrying the hay-wagon across the shallow marshland. The name comes from the German word "furt" meaning "a man who lives by poling rafts across shallow water". ........The earliest peoples of the area were of the "Cheruscian Tribe"....lived as animal herders (pigs and cattle) in the forests and grew oats and rye on raised dry land. ........They were known for their independence. |
 | Munster, Germany Catholic Cathederal begun in 1120 AD, expanded in 1210, finished in 1230 AD The Cathederal was originally owned by the people of Munster and only in 1588 when the Jesuit Fathers were brought in to improve its University academic standing did the Cathederal revert to the Catholic Church. .....................This is the third Cathederal on the site and it was not bombed during the Second World War. (The B-17 crew assigned to bomb it mistakenly bombed another Cathederal in nearby Holland.) .....................Located only 47 miles (4 1/2 hours on horseback) SW of Lohne 22 Generations of Formann's from 1120 to 1840 would surely have stood in awe in front of it. .......................We look at it 7 generations after Clemens and Heinrich left it in abt. 1845. | |

Battle of Minden in which in 16 AD Prince and Roman General Germanicus, adapted Son of Tiberius (successor to Emperor Augustus)"on the right side of the Weser River" bitterly fought German Tribal Leader Arminius. This happened as the Chauci Tribe joined with the Romans against the Cheruscian Tribe of Arminius. Both sides suffered grievous losses but the Romans were victorious even though Arminius himself and Inviomerus, his uncle, managed to escape with the bulk of their army in tact. "according to Tacitus". | |
