A farm at Aiglsöd, municipality of Wegscheid, is in family hands since 1665, i.e. approximately 350 years or 10 generations.
First owner was Thomas Hutsteiner who bought this farm 1665 from Johann Kern there at a time when Wegscheid and surroundings was hit by the pestilence heavily.
In the Urbar of 1643 there was no Hutsteiner at Aiglsöd. The entire farm was the farm of Jakob Weisheipl in 1643, later of Philip Weisheipl in 1656, which was quite large, about 1.5x the usual fief size. The Weisheipl family does not occur in Aiglsöd after 1658 anymore.
Thomas was followed by his son Paul. Finally, Alois Hutsteiner, Thomas 8x great-grandson took over the farm in the 1980s.
