The first Jennerjahn in the Schweriner area I found however only in 13. Century. Before the Jennerjahns had established itself as city citizens in the former diocese Havelberg, in the current heart Mecklenburgs. Because from the time, when Christoph Kolumbus discovered the new worlds before of Americas coasts, tax documents are received, we know from the early settlement of the family in the current Mecklenburg. The so-called Kaiserbede was decided in the year 1495 on the realm day in Worms. In the realm day also the duke Magnus II. of Mecklenburg participated. The realm tax valid for all humans should support the king Maximilian I. in its war in Italy and against the "Turks". The so-called "common Pfennig" was classified under Mecklenburg after the size of the hoof and/or of the landbesitzes - in other countries after the height of the income. A Jennerjahn paid at that time 3 Schillings. Many descendants settled as farmers, in particular after the 30-jaehrigen war in the devastated country and became however merry in the consequences of the further many wars and the "farmer putting" again their possession. In 19. Many landgueter the knight shank go to century into the bankruptcy (instead of wages their work is partly paid with alcohol) and the social situation of the possessionless landbevoelkerung sharpens itself dramatically too. In this time the body characteristic is waived and many Jennerjahns leaves the country. Most over 250.000 of the emigrants went because of the poverty, more or less involuntarily (one here often refuses a dwelling as well as marriage permission to them) with their families over Hamburg and Bremen into the United States from America. "history repeats itself"?: Since the case of the wall leave 1989 and the political turn in the former GDR annually approx.. 30 - thousand humans their homeland in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. 1990 was it even 60000 humans those the country left. In particular young humans leave, on the search for training - and jobs this country. For the future of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania this renewed bleeding can involve devastating consequences - then this trend could lead the country into a so-called age case. In the economy already soon young specialists are missing.
