Maps of crofter's holdings
The squire Carl von Proschwitz at Floda Manor specified in 1871 the number of
"godsare" (~farm tenants) to be 45. He is probably referring to the crofters.

Map 3 is showing crofter's holdings, but the number of house symbols are far more
than 45.  This indicates that there were other houses in which people lived under 
different conditions than the crofters.
