    •      Lieselotte (Freese) Fiegenbaum states that Anna Elisabeth was her father's heir (in German, Erbtochter). It was often the case, but not always so, that the spouse of an heiress would changed his surname at marriage so he would have the farm's name. Such was the case in this instance, and the eleven children assumed the surname Fiegenbaum. This practice, not completely unknown even in the 20th century in Ladbergen, is mentioned in Friedrich Saatkamp, Ladbergen: Out of the History and the Present of the 1000-year Westphalian Village, edited and translated by Dean R. Hoge (New Knoxville, Ohio: New Knoxville Historical Society, 1985).
