Scope and content
The farm of the family Meiwes or Thöne once called Robrecht Stellbrink is located until 1900 in the community Wewer, a district southwest of Paderborn and since 1969 merged with the city. Since its relocation in 1900, the farm has been located in the district of Elsen, which today also belongs to Paderborn. In 1794 Henricus Altmiercks called Stellbrink was the first farm owner to be mentioned in a Meier protocol (file 45). From 1825 the documents show Ferdinand Robrecht named Stellbrink, married to Antoniette Drewer zu Wewer, as the owner of the court at Wewer (file 39). In 1839 the married couple Robrecht called Stellbrink transferred the farm to their stepson Johann Thöne (file 45). His son, the farmer and later head of the village Joseph Thöne, signed over the farm from his father on 11 February 1870 (file 45). In 1900 Joseph Thöne acquires a marsh area of about 200 acres in the neighbouring municipality of Elsen, bought fifty years earlier by Baron von Brenken, and then begins to cultivate it and builds the estate.
