[The Mennonites of the Kuhbornscheshof in the Vicinity of Katzweiler] "The Kuhborncheshof (the name of a Hof, or landed estate), on the hill country west of Katzwweiler, is listed as one of the larger Mennonite settlements in the Palatinate. The supposed origine of the estate was under the Crown Elector Karl Philipp through the Elector's court in Heidelberg. On the date of January 19, 1717 the Mennonite Hans Heinrich Lattschar by the 'Kipp Henges Brennen' (by the spring on the Kipp slope) was given a piece of land 220 acres (the acre equivalent of a Morgen is hard to state, for it varies from time to time and place) as an inheritance, for which he was to pay eight measures of rye and seven measures of oats to Martin for the right to the slope on the Lauter (Lauter, in this case refers to the river in the area). 'Kipp Henges Brennen' indicates that there was a spring that belonged to Henchen (Henry) Kipp, and from this old name 'Kuhbornscheshof' came into existence. Hans Heinrich Lattschar, a Mennonite, who fled for his faith out of the Simmenthal (Simmen Valley) in the Canton Bern, Switzerland, by way of the Alsatian cathedral (Masmunster) in 1715 into the Palatinate, originally cultivated the land with his wife and children and built the Hoff, (landed estate). He is the original ancestor of the widely branched Zipp Lattschar (Latschar, Latscha) family, who lived on the estate for 250 years, and still occupys it as well as many other parts of the Palatinate and of the German Confederation. Two sons of the immigrant emigrated to Pennsylvania as early as 1728 and 1741. From there the family spread out, even to Canada. And in later years more families moved to the USA from Kuhborncheshof."
