From "?sterlarsker Sl?gter", researched by Vilhelm Svendsen:
In January of 1751 a fire totally destroyed all of the farm buildings on Elleskovg?rd. A year later Kirsten Berildsdatter died, and you would have thought that her son Esber Ibsen, now 23 years old, would have taken over management of Elleskovg?rd, but this did not happen until 1756. Before which time he lived in a house on the land, farming a small plot called "Kattestiert".
Several of Esber Ibsen's sisters and half-sisters and their husbands lived in houses on land belonging to Elleskovg?rd. One of these places was rented out in 1755 for the yearly some of 6 Slettedaler and 8 Mark, plus 12 measurements (sk?lpund) of butter and one day's worth of peat-moss harvesting.
After taking over the farm he managed it for the following 46 years until his death in 1802. Records state he died of old age and chest sickness (brystsyge). At the time of Esber Ibsen's death, the conditions were very similar to what had taken place when his father had died 71 years earlier; Esber Ibsen had also been married twice and had many children.
From the inheritance proceedings after Esber Ibsen's death his widow Karen Hansdatter got the right to keep all belongings, as well as the farm itself, for the rest of her life. In settling this matter it was agreed that she would give 400 Sldr. to the children, and further, would grant the oldest daughter from his second marriage, 11 year old Ellen Kirstine the right to take over the farm for 600 Sldr.
The 400 Slettedaler was divided between the children in the following way: the two sons each received 88 Slettedaler, 3 Mark and 8 Skilling; the five daughters each received 44 Sldr., 1 Mk., 12 Sk. Also, a silver-mug engraved: "N.T.S. - M.M.D. 1699", plus a silver-spoon engraved: "M.I.S. - A.C.L.P.D. 1712", was given to the second oldest daughter Anna Margretha by her mother Karen Hansdatter, who also gave each of the other two daughters one silver-spoon.
Furthermore, it was decide that proper care should be given to the youngest daughter Karen Christine - who was born mentally handicapped (?ndssvag) - and that her guardian, Jens Madsen from Holl?nderg?rd, Olsker, would see to it in case her needs were not taken care of on the family farm; however, she would die one year after her mother, at only six years old.
The Inheritance-Protocol shows a detailed description of the farm inventory:
The farm-stock: three mares which were 9, 12 and 18 years old valued respectively at 40, 20 and 6 Sldr., also two more mares worth a total of 32 Sldr.; one black horse worth 16 Sldr. and two foals worth 10 Sldr. Next five cows worth 47 Sldr.; one cow with two calves worth 32 Sldr.; and 15 sheep worth a good Sldr. each.
Farm equipment was specified to be: two wagons at 10 Sldr. each, one plough with a low wheel at 2 Sldr., three old ploughs worth 3 Mk., three harrows with iron-rakes at 3 Sldr., three saddles at 4 Sldr., and from the farm-workers' quarters: two beds with bedding worth 18 Sldr.
Last, the harvest: the pea-harvest of 7 T?nder (barrels) worth 21 Sldr.; the oat-harvest of 10 Td. worth 15 Sldr.; the wheat-harvest of 8 Td. worth 28 Sldr.; and also a wheat-yield of 12 Td. worth 42 Sldr.; and finally the flax-yield worth 33 Sldr.
The widowed Karen Hansdatter second marriage was to Peder Jensen Piil, who took over the management of Elleskovg?rd. Sadly, within two years, in 1804, she would die from complications of child-birth, and was buried on the same day her son (the infant Esper Pedersen Piil) was christened.
A public hearing was called in the East-District (?ster Herred) Court to obtain a manager for the farm, with the following conditions:
The farm had to be managed for three years, from September 30, 1805-September 30, 1808, and at the start the manager would be provided with a spring-feed of hay and oats in good measure - he was required to provide an equal amount when he left.
As well, the new manager had to pay all taxes and expenses, and must not impoverish the soil; in the barley-field he must not sow oats, no meadow could be ploughed under, and no trees could be felled without permission - except hawthorn for the wood-stove.
The manager had to pay down 600 Slettedaler at the start and would receive that amount back at the end of the three year contract. Furthermore, the manager had to keep up the yearly renewal of sections of the thatched roofs.
The new manager was none other than Peder Jensen Piil, step-father to the heir of Elleskovg?rd. He thus stayed on managing the farm for the next three years, with a yearly payment of 58 Sldr. At the end of the contract it turned out that Peder Jensen Piil had not completed the prescribed repair work, and therefore had to compensate the heir, Ellen Kirstine Esbersdatter, with 150 Sldr. She was now 17 years old and would that same year, 1808, marry the two years older Hans Henrich Christensen. They took over the management of Elleskovg?rd, which they farmed for 52 years, until 1860 when their youngest son, Svend Hansen Schou became the owner.
