Hello I have just joined the forum.
I recently discovered that my ancestral family came from Diephalz,
Hanover.
My 4x gt grandfather was a royal forester in Barnstorff, by the name of
Otto OPPERMAN.
I wondered if anyone might know to which royal household, he would have
been forester, and just what this meant.

Hallo Terry, his name was Otto Friedrich Oppermann, he was forester
1767 in Barnstorf, later in Eydelstedt, he married Mariensee 12. Juliy
1767 Maria Dorothea( the name is not to read) from Celle and he was
dead before 1812, his title k�niglich gro�britannischer, kurf�rstlich
branschweig-l�neburgischer gehender F�rster, best wishes Heinrich
