On this page anyone who has a lease/contract is sryled a -fæster, here Gaardfæster.  In contrast, an increasing number of individuals held homes, lots, and farms outright.  This status was in contrast to indsidder, 'renter/boarder' and Aftægtsmand, someone with a life care/provision contract after passing on a leasehold.
