His successor is Erhard von Zedtwitz in 1562 . The Zedwitz are still registered as Landsassen in 1573, but the topographer Christoph Vogel has given a Conz Wallenroder as the owner. Karl Breuning pays hereditary homage in 1580 . Hans Furtenbach gave him the country estate as a pledge. In 1585 the estate was sold to Hans Christoph Modschidler. Successors are Hans von Steinau (1589) and Albrecht Toß (1601). In 1652 the Steinlingers are named as country residents . In 1809 a patrimonial court was established in Boden and Steinling , owned by Wilhelm Freiherr von Steinling. The Hofmark remained with this family until the beginning of the 19th century.
