Linswege

In Linswege families with the surnames HOBBIE, HOBBIESIEFKEN, HOBJESIEFKEN and partly also HOBBENSIEFKEN have their origin. However, the place of origin of most HOBBENSIEFKEN is Westerloy. The name HOBBIE is also used by the descendants of several other lines.

The village of Linswege lies about 3.5 km northeast of Westerstede and is today part of the municipality of Westerstede. According to the Landesmuseum Oldenburg, archaeological finds there point to settlements as early as the 9th century AD. As „Lynsvidon“ this settlement was mentioned 1124 in a document of Pope Calixtus II. to the definition of the „tithe“. Since the patrimony HOBBIE is called in the early earth books of the 17th century as farm No. 1, this property might have been founded there as one of the first and thus probably already existed in the 12th century. In a tax book, the „Oldenburger Salbuch“, the Minister of Duke Moritz von Oldenburg, Jacob Scheinheise (called Specken after marriage), noted in 1428 that Teyleke HOBBING from „Linswede“ had to pay an offer money of 15 Grote for the preservatInformation about Rhododendron-Park Hobbieion of the church just like the others. As the only free farmer in Linswege he did not have to pay any tax to the duke at that time. The „ing-form“ of the early name indicates that the farm name HOBBING in Linswege was already in use before the 15th century. Thus the family „HOBBIE from Linswege“ is one of the three to four oldest ancestral lines.
For decades, the descendants of Teyleke HOBBING have been running a very well-known rhododendron park, a plant from the heather family which originates primarily from the Asian highlands and is now very common in the Oldenburg Ammerland region. Further information can be found at www.hobbie-rhodo.de .
This park is located in the neighbouring Petersfeld on the road to Spohle, while the descendants and current owners still live in the existing head office in the centre of Linswege.Farm & Park in Linswege in GoogleEarth

The families „HOBBIE from Linswege“ until around 1920

The spelling of the names mainly follows the baptismal registers and documents. The German names for farmers and farm hands are retained and are to be interpreted as follows:
„Hausmann“ = farmer with a long-established hereditary farm, first settlers in a village,
„Köter“ = farmer with a smaller, later founded farm,
„Halbköter, Viertelköter“ = Köter with less land,
„Brinksitzer“ = small farmer on the outskirts of the village,
„Anbauer“ = farmer on newly cultivated land,
„Grundheuermann“ = farm hand with own house on non-inherent land,
„Heuermann, Heuerling“ = farm hand without own house,
„Häusling“ = person without own house,
„Dienstknecht, Knecht“ = farm hand.

1. Teyleke HOBBING, *around 1400 Linswege, Hausmann.
Teyleke HOBBING is the oldest known ancestor of these families „HOBBIE from Linswege“ and thus – as described above – the top ancestor, who worked as a free heredity farmer on the still today family owned farm. Further family data are not known to him.

2. Johan? HOBBING, *around 1430 Linswege, Hausmann.
Between Teyleke HOBBING, mentioned in 1428, and Reyneke HOBBING, mentioned in 1509 as the father of Hille HOBBING, another generation must probably have existed. The first name could have been „Johan“.

3. Reyneke HOBBING, *around 1460 Linswege, Hausmann.
He probably had at least three children who reached adulthood and got married. Hille HOBBING (*around 1487) married Dietrich Bolen (*about 1480) from Groß-Garnholt according to a document of the monastery Rastede from 27 September 1509 in Rastede, but remained free herself as well as one of her children. Johan HOBBING (*around 1495) will have been named the heir to the farm, who is indirectly documented by his sons. A subsequent son Reincke HOBBING (around 1500-around 1560) is indirectly explained by the appearance of the HOBBIE family in Zetel from 1581. There, the older heredity farmer Johann HOBBIE is named 1582 in the land allotment from embankments and two Reincke HOBBEIE in the defence recruitment register of 1581. Due to the same first names in the male succession, descent from the Linswegers is probable, but so far not documented and verifiable. See further information at „HOBBIE from Zetel„.

4. Johan HOBBING, *around 1495 Linswege, Hausmann.
He presumably had at least the two sons Reincke HOBBING (around 1530-around 1603) as heir of the farm, see 5.a), and Sieveke HOBBING (around 1540-around 1635), see 5.b).

5. a) Reincke HOBBING, *around 1530 Linswege, +around 1603, Hausmann.
In 1581 he is mentioned in the defence recruitment register of Westerstede as heredity farmer with two farm hands. Accordingly, his son Johan HOBBY (around 1570- after 1642), see 6.a), was still too young for defence service.

5. b) Sieveke HOBBING, *around 1540 Linswege, +around 1635, Köter.
He is mentioned 1581 in the defence recruitment register of Westerstede. In the „Weinkaufregister“ (recording of all legal contracts) for 1623-1639 on page 35 under „Linsswegenn“ (probably in the year 1635) is noted: „Hobbie Sieveken has reached his age on one hundred years. Has died and his son Gerth is supposed to sell the Coederey with 2 1/2 Reichsthaler“. For Gerth HOBBIE(*around 1570) see 6.b).

6. a) Johann HOBBY, *around 1570 Linswege, +after 1635, Hausmann.
He is listed in the defence recruitment register 1632. In the „Weinkaufregister“ 1623-1639 on page 34 under „Linsswegenn“ (presumably in the year 1635) is noted: „Johan Hobbie has a whole free inheritance. Pays his „Weinkauf“ (contract fee) in 1603 and still lives.“ He married around 1603 Talke Ahlers (around 1580- after 08.06.1642) from Bockhorn. To her it says in „Eheverträge, Testamente und sonstige Urkunden von Westerstede“ by Gerd Janssen: „Talke Hobby, daughter of late Brunke Alers from Bockhorn, lets record on 08.06.1642 in view of her weakness before the witnesses among others Johan Hobby that her brother, the late Johan Alers withheld the promised bridal treasure from her“. They had at least one son. Johann HOBBY (around 1610-1677) was the farm heir, see 7.a).

6. b) Gerth HOBBIE, *around 1570 Linswege, Köter.
He probably had at least two sons. For Rencke HOBBI (1597-1674) see 7b). For Siefke HOBBY (around 1600-1674) see 7.c). Like his brother, he is listed as „sick“ in the defence recruitment register of 03.01.1653.

7. a) Johann HOBBY, *around 1610 Linswege, +09.11.1677 ibid., Hausmann.
He married Talcke NN (1615-1699) around 1636 and had at least three children with her. The assignment and whereabouts of Rencke HOBBI (*around 1637) are unclear. Johann HOBBY (1650-1717) is the farm heir, see 8). The assignment and whereabouts of Hille HOBBY (*05.11.1662 Linswege) are unclear.

7. b) Rencke HOBBY, *1597 Linswege, +03.02.1674 ibid., Köter.

The whereabouts of Gerd HOBBIE (around 1620-1677 Linswege) and Anna HOBBIE (around 1625-1669 Linswege) are unknown. To his second marriage around 1656 with Grete NN (*around 1630-1676) no children are known.

7. c) Siefke HOBBY- SIEVKEN, *around 1600 Linswege, +16.01.1674 ibid., Köter.
He married Talke Schroers (*around 1620) from Linswege in 1642 and had with her at least two sons, who also were called „Hobbe-Siveken“ or „Hobby-Siefken“ in distinction to the main family. Thus he became the founder of the extensive secondary line „Hobbiesiefken“ of the families „HOBBIE aus Linswege“, which is described further and in detail under „Hobbiesiefken„.
