RELATIONSHIP TERMS (Who is my Masselink Cousin?)
When working on our family history, it's handy to know how to describe our family relationships more exactly. The definitions below should help.
If someone walked up to you and said "Howdy, I'm your third cousin, twice removed," would you have any idea what they meant? Most people have a good understanding of basic relationship words such as "mother," "father," "aunt," "uncle," "brother," and "sister." But what about the relationship terms that we don't use in everyday speech? Terms like "second cousin" and "first cousin, once removed"? We don't tend to speak about our relationships in such exact terms ("cousin" seems good enough when you are introducing one person to another), so most of us aren't familiar with what these words mean.
First Cousin: Your first cousins are the people in our family who have two of the same grandparents as you. In other words, they are the children of your aunts and uncles.
Second Cousin: Your second cousins are the people in our family who have the same great-grandparents as you; but not the same grandparents.
Third, Fourth, and Fifth Cousins: Your third cousins have the same great-great-grandparents, fourth cousins have the same great-great-great-grandparents, and so on.
Removed: When the word "removed" is used to describe a relationship, it indicates that the two people are from different generations. You and our first cousins are in the same generation (two generations younger than your grandparents), so the word "removed" is not used to describe your relationship.
The words "once removed" mean that there is a difference of one generation. For example, your mother's first cousin is your first cousin, once removed. This is because your mother's first cousin is one generation younger than your grandparents and you are two generations younger than your grandparents. This one-generation difference equals "once removed." Twice removed means that there is a two-generation difference. You are two generations younger than a first cousin of your grandmother, so you and your grandmother's first cousin are first cousins, twice removed. So now you know.

the Monastery in historic times was the owner of the inheritance Masselink to Vasse (VPR 515) and another inheritance Masselink to Mander (VPR 557). The latter is indicated in Vasse, as corporal discipline Masselink but still has a full value in the marke Mander but at least in the area around Lengerich in the 1700's we find people in the Leibzucht who are not the old colonus. It seems to be used as though it were another house on the farm.
In this region, the Leibzucht (dutch: lijftucht) was often called 'het Olde', because originally, it was indeed meant for the old, retired farmers couple on the farm. A nineth part of the farmland of the main farm belonged to it, for the inhabitants of the 'Leibzucht' to live from.
Often, after the retired people had died, it was rented to other people, who might have been unrelated. Sometimes the old couple, after retiring, remained living on the main farm, for financial reasons, because then the Leibzucht could already be rented to other people earlier.
Such tenants often adopted the name of the Leibzucht as their own surname. For instance: When the name of the main farm would be Hassing, the Leibzucht would be called 'Olde Hassing' and the tenant on it would also adopt the surname 'Olde Hassing'. This makes genealogy of such families extremely difficult.
