Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a micro-study of a small rural community of German inhabitants on the early modern estate of Česká Kamenice in the border area of north Bohemia. The aim of the study is to detail selected demographic, social and economic aspects of the life of the early modern rural inhabitants. The micro-study focuses on the institution of servitude, the circumstances of entering into marriage, transfer of ownership rights of serf property and forms of familial cohabitation. The findings are viewed through the prism of European marriage-patterns theory, proto-industrialisation theory and ecotype theory.
