Liening
Liening is a family name that can probably be traced back to several regional origins.
Origin and meaning
Region 1: County of Grafschaft Bentheim / Wietmarschen
Liening → "zur Linde" or "von der Linde"
Since the time of the Celts , names have been given in the region according to water points and local conditions. Communities such as Wietmarschen → "Wiet in de Mersch" were named after the marshland , the land reclaimed from the water. In the 15th century, the Liening farm was named after the linden trees that grew there and the tor who lived there were called Lynde or Lyndeman.
Age of the Liening Farm (tor Lynde, Lyndeman)
It is difficult to determine the exact foundation date of the farm. The former Wietmarschen monastery only wrote down what belonged to it in Wietmarschen or what was liable to taxes. In addition, documents prior to the 15th century are few and far between. Nevertheless, it is possible that the farm is one of the oldest in the municipality of Wietmarschen. This fact can be justified by various aspects:
1. Eschhof
The Liening, Lyndemann or tor Lynde farm can be referred to as the so-called Eschhof (see Esch (corridor) ), one of the oldest agricultural farming techniques. The area in which the farm is located is still called the "old village" and is located in the highest part of the municipality of Wietmarschen .
2. Full inheritance "Liening"
Another indication of its age is the fact that the farm was taxed as a "full heir" for centuries. The " full heirs " are probably the oldest farms in Wietmarschen, there are a total of 7 full-heirs farms. Two of them were founded by the Wietmarschen monastery at that time in 1220 (Nyhoff → Neuer Hof or now Hof Niehoff-Germer) and around 1280 (Sütthoff). The farms Veddern, Heilker and Moormann were founded in the 16th century and were called Kötter ). According to the current state of knowledge, the possible order of founding farms could be as follows: full heirs, three-quarter heirs, half-heirs, kötter, three-quarter kötter .... From this one can conclude that the full inheritance courts were founded between 1220 and 1520/40 or even existed before.
3. Court square under in the linden trees
Fetched far away, but it is still possible that the farm or courtyards in the “old village” are even older than the municipality of Wietmarschen (founded in 1152 ). This is due to the fact that the monastery and the abbey area of the monastery (west) as well as the two courtyards founded by the monastery (in the north and south) are located on the edge of the "old village". The other four full inheritance farms are said to have all been in the center of the “old village”. The fact that the Liening farm was surrounded by linden trees, the name points to linden trees and that there were early execution sites under linden trees → Linden tree , could be used as a final clue for determining the age.
4. Mention of the name "tor Lynde"
