a teacher \|\| and as a teacher at that time he also performed certain church duties.
Religion	09 Jun 1858	Jakobsonstal, Dobrudscha, Romania [6, 7, 8]
It is possibly that Ferdniand was a so-called Separatist in 1858 because the church record for Jakob's baptism shows that he was a teacher but the “Ev. L” (protestant Lutheran) under Ferdinand’s name, had been crossed out. According to an expert in this area, this may indicate that he was not a Lutheran at that time. Wilhelm's birth record in 1862 shows both Ferdinand and his wife Wilhelmine, as Protestant denomination.

Notes

baptized his son Jakob I
Bortscheag was a large estate owned and managed by people from France that employed German workers and was situated 6km northeast of the German settlement of Albota. Some research into the history of the Bortscheag Germans finds that many were so-called Separatists and followed Ignaz Lindl's religious teaching. Copies of the Evangelical Lutheran Church Books begin in 1864 and most of the entries for the next nearly twenty years were made by the teacher Ferdidand Ohlhausen.

[S397] Elvire Necker, E-Mail, Ferdinand a Separatist, (18 Dec 2006), After examining the birth record of Jacob 1, Cornelia Schlarb, an expert in the field says " The letters under 'teacher at Jakobsonsthal' refer to the confession of the father and should be: Ev L. (Protestant Lutheran). here the letters are stoked out. Possibly your ancestorbelonged to the so-called 'Separatists'. When Lindl left Sarat, a time of great turmoil started in the communities and at the beginning of the 1840sa large separation and emigration began."

Elvire also writes: "It was known that the Schorr family were Separtists at that time, so it may be possible that Ferdinand belonged to that movement. As the teacher in the area, he was still allowed to performed certain church duties in the Lutheran church."; F1, page 38 + 16(3of12), Book F1, page 38.
