Brennhausen the Village (?)

a severe storm damaged it so much that Josephine demolished it.
In past centuries there were more houses at Brennhausen. Anton Rottmayer in Statistisch-topographisches handbuch f?r den Unter-Mainkreis des k?nigreichs Bayern published in 1830 describes Brennhausen as having: one castle, seven residences, one mill with two mill stones, ten families, 56 residents, 22 Catholics, 34 Protestants with the Protestants going to Sulzdorf for church and school and the Catholics going to Obere?feld.
In 1832, Johann Wilhelm Rost, described fifty-one inhabitants in twelve families lived at Brennhausen. Ten of them were Catholic, thirty-six Lutheran, and five Jewish. The Catholics went to church in Untere?feld and the Lutherans in Sulzdorf.
Until 1848, Brennhausen had original jurisdiction over its own affairs. In 1915 (WWI), Brennhausen had six residences besides the castle but only two were inhabited. The other four were dilapidated. One ariel photo shows foundation shadows in the fields as well.
