| Abstract | "Anton was born in 1828 in the farming village of Neuland in the then-Kingdom of Hanover [along the Oste River]. Anton lived his whole life within a radius of a few miles of his birthplace. When he died in 1916, [he died without fame or wealth]. Still, this man played an important part in the lives of his neighbors and family members--including my Schlichting ancestors." |
