Honesty Scheid
The Honschaft Scheid , also known as the Second Dorfhonschaft Wald in the 19th century , was a Honschaft in the parish and judicial district of Wald within the Bergisch district of Solingen in the Middle Ages and modern times . It comprised part of today's Solingen urban area in the Wald district .
The honor existed as early as 1220, when Count Engelbert von Berg divided his County of Berg into judicial districts. At that time, the Scheid honors were already one of eight honors in the Wald parish, which at the same time formed a judicial district from that time on.
After the end of the French occupation at the beginning of the 19th century and the dissolution of the Grand Duchy of Berg in 1815, the Honschaft Scheid - while maintaining the communal reorganization of the Duchy carried out by the French - finally became a rural community of the mayorry of Wald in the district of Solingen in the administrative district of Düsseldorf within the Prussian Rhine province assigned and was thus one of the lowest Bergisch administrative units until the 19th century . In 1807 the French made reclassifications in peripheral areas. In 1807, according to Mutz, the French came from the Honschaft Gräfrath, the living spaces Am Hahnenhaus and Im Vogelsang , from the Honschaft Ketzberg the living spaces Am Schlagbaum and Am Adamshäuschen , from the Honschaft Hackhausen the living spaces In der Höh , Im Loch and Lochskotten and from the Honschaft Katternberg the residential areas Dingshaus , Mittel- , Untengönrath and In der Waard to the Honschaft. In the remaining literature and statistics, there is in some cases no evidence for the above area adjustments, including in the case of Waardt.
In 1815/16 there were 1,077 inhabitants in the Honschaft.
According to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , the following localities and living spaces (original spelling) belonged to the Honschaft 1832: Hanenhaus , Demmeltrath , Eignerfeld , Vogelsang , Eigen , Lehn , Herberg , Hecken , Oben Scheidt , Below Scheidt , Schlagbaum , Oben Mangenberg , Below Mangenberg , Above Göntrath , Middle Gönrath , Below Gönrath , Dingshaus , Höh , Kleinenberg , Büschberg , Köttgen , Scheidermühle , Scheiderfeld , Mummscheidt , Loch , Wiedenkamp and Sonnenkamp .
At that time there were five public buildings, 217 houses, four mills or factories and 171 agricultural buildings. There were 1,329 inhabitants in the community, 196 of them Catholic and 1,133 Protestant.
With the elevation of the mayor's office of Wald to town in 1856, the honors ceased to exist as an administrative unit.
