At the state parliament in autumn 1681, Hans Georg von Petersdorff was elected provisional agent for the Dobbertin monastery for the duchy of Güstrow for four years . The provisional members could be re-elected after one electoral term.

Due to the wars in Mecklenburg at the time, from which the Dobbertin monastery and its villages were not spared by billeting and looting, the files in these years are very poor. Pastor Martin Huth heard that after 1683 he had arguments with various Dobbertiner people because of their attitude towards the church. Praepositi Huthen zu Dobbertin also thanked in a written declaration "the current provisional agent of the Closter Dobbertin for his freedom with the gift for life to his previously usual deputation with 1 tour of salt".
