Hello List Members,
In our research we find that some persons listed their work as Cossath. We
have been unable to determine what that means. Thank you for a response.

Edward;
I find a Cossat(e) as being a cottager with little land.

Don�t want o tell you something wrong.As far as I remeber there must be a defi-
nition in every Dictionary of historical terms, maybe perhaps only in every
German Dictionary of historical terms. By accident mine has gone, and never it
was seen again. As far as I remember Koss�th it is a name for a special form of
constitution of peasantry. Those who were named Koss�th were not the most wealthy
worker on the field. And it was of a special regional spread. For all that better
look for the dictionary, which gives a better summary. Hans Peter Albers
Yvonne,
that�s correct. In some areas they are also called Koethner, K�tner, K�ter,
K�tter.
They have more or less a "Viertelhof" (quarter of a full farm), sometimes less.
Regards,
J�rgen
