The start of the Spangsberg name, starts with Gregers Clemendsen
who must be said to be the ancestor of the Spangsberg family.Gregers
was a tenant under the manor Krogsgaard in Tjæreborg Parish.
Around 1640 he became bailiff or clerk for the estate. It was
while the tough Holstein gentleman Jørgen Ratlow had
the. He was not held by his subjects. In 1640 Jørgen was
Ratlow in violation of one of his attachments. One of them claimed, "that page
Gregers Clemend was bailiff at Krogsgaard, then each
may have been bailiffs or servants. "He may have been
re zealous in the service stone than the peasants cared for. During a legal
case that took place at the same time, against a party in Skads ved
name Jens Steffensen, Gregers Clemendsen was assaulted by
Lene Jenskone, who hit him in the head and on the hand with a stick.
In each other's mouths, Jens Steffensen and his wife shouted for
the mighty one: "You have always hated us and been the cause of it
tired ". And Lene Jenskone added at her own expense:" I must
promise you that you will get a devil's move, you scoundrel ", a very far-
equal remark at a time when it was believed that every woman was one
latent witch. Jens Steffensen had moved from his farm in Skads
to Rovst in Grimstrup Parish, and he had taken some with him
nail-biting things that the landowner thought belonged to the farm. Gregers
Clemendsen was among the 24 formers in the board that in
1637 commented on the conduct of Marin Tomisdatter (Maren Splids).
She was born in Grimstrup "of honest, godly and pious for-
older oc had always from her childhood, oc all the time she hafuer

not known, as Christian the 4th after 5 years of trial demanded
executed her, after which she was burned in 1641 between gallows-
the hills outside Ribe on a bonfire with 22 loads of firewood.On April 4
1637 presented Chr. Saderup in Varde a matter of knowledge regarding 7
skp. grain, which Gregers Clemendsen should have promised Chr. Sade-
rups father.Gregers Clemendsen claimed that the witness was false. Herreds-
the bailiff gave Jens Hansen I Maade and Peder Christensen in Strand-
by the script (after devar of the 8 men and could read and write).
They thought a digit had changed. and the bailiff's seal on the writing
sen was not right and the printer's seal was not "suppressed". While
Peder Christensen sat and read in the scripture, took Chr. Saderup it out
of his hand "without leave and kept it with him and would not
present ". The bailiff forbade him on behalf of the Royal Majesty" that
times from the thing before he put it down because it was declared
right for false ". The case was not mentioned since, so the parties are probably
in 1642 Jørgen Ratlow sold Krogsgaard to Wentzel
Rothkirch, Christian the 4th's savior in the Battle of Lutter
am Barenberg 1626. He built a new expensive manor with
4 wings on 2 floors, surrounded by ramparts and tombs.After Riberhus lens-
accounts 1654-1655 get Gregers Clemendsen along with several
others a fine because they did not apprehend "Tommes Terp udi Varde, there
he killed Peder Nielsen in Forumlund ". Each had to pay 18 da-
ler curant.It was a troubled time Gregers Clemendsen lived in -
He experienced 4 wars: the Kalmar War 1611 - 13, the Imperial War 1625
- 29, Torstensonkrigen 1643 - 45, and finally Karl Gustavkrigene
1657 - 60. During the last 3 Jutland was occupied, with everything had this
entailed by violence. looting, burning and plague. Still see it
out that he manages fairly well through the difficult
times, for he left behind the richest estate of the whole lord below
the Swedish wars. A shift was held after him on March 6, 1660,
but due to the turbulent times, the change was first registered one year later.
