[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Occupation Translation/Explanation

[Paul Rakow]

  John,

     A General-Paechter would be a wealthy person who rented a large
  estate of government land from the king, usually for 6 or 12 years.

      In the 18th century the state gained a lot of its income from
  renting out estates; in the 19th century it became less profitable,
  (partly because the peasants on the estates had been freed from serfdom),
  and many of the government estates were sold into private hands,
