Ran into this in a will....basically a 'morgen' is the amount of land a single horse/plow/farmer could till in a morning (morgen = morning, auf deutsche).

What is a morgen

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

According to this site-BTW great set of conversion tables-
14 morgen is equal to 8.83 acres.

Morgen is both the singular and the plural.....
