Meaning of Einlieger

A Einlieger was a landless tenant, lodger, or cottager who lived in someone else’s house or on someone else’s property.

An Einlieger did not own land or a house but might work for the landowner or rent a small room or cottage on the estate. They were of a lower socio-economic class than full farmers (Vollmeier, Halbmeier, etc.).

Jobst Heinrich Kruckeberg

n. 10 Bärenbusch

In 19th-century German church records:

  • Individuals were often identified by village and house number associated with the head of household — usually the father.

  • This applied to both deceased and living fathers, and often included professions.

  • Even if the son or daughter still lived at that house, the address (when it immediately follows the father’s name) is still formally associated with the father in these records.

What is a Schusteramtsmeister?

Jobst Heinrich’s occupation was a Schusteramtsmeiter. This is a compound German word:

  • Schuster: Shoemaker or cobbler

  • Amt: Office, guild, or administrative authority

  • Meister: Master

Thus, “Schusteramtsmeister” translates to “Master of the Shoemakers' Guild” or more precisely, “Guild Master of the Shoemakers”.

In the 19th-century German context, especially in regions like Schaumburg-Lippe, craftsmen were organized into guilds (Zünfte or Ämter). These guilds regulated the practice of their respective crafts, overseeing training, quality standards, and trade practices. The Amtsmeister was a senior figure within the guild, often elected by fellow members, responsible for administrative duties, overseeing apprenticeships, ensuring quality control, and representing the guild in municipal matters.
