Herrschaft Jever
“Herrshaft Jever” and the “Lordship of Jever” are basically the same entity–the former a subdivision (rendered in German, as all subdivisions are) and the latter a country (rendered in English, as all countries are). The country (Lordship), regardless of who was administering it, was not actually subdivided until after it was incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg after the Napoleonic Wars. During the period covered by this project, “Herrshaft Jever” is just a dummy subdivision used to create a village list. It is not included in the full place name of villages in the Herrschaft.
