Moreover I did some research in archives in the Staatsarchiv in Osnabrueck, which told me a lot about some families before 1650. I also copied - and partially transcribed - the documents left by the notary Henrich Bodige, who is our common ancestor. There are a couple of books on Doerpen, written by the former burgomaster (mayor) of Doerpen Anton Busemann and his son Bernd.
