Very helpful!! Thank you. btw, her father Daniel was a Cuirassier in his earlier years. Daniel's father was a farmer. Could brickburner be a brick maker?

A brickburner was a maker of lime. It was made by burning limestone in brick/stone ovens.

Re: brick maker
The German word used seems to be Steinbrenner (literally stone burner). I've never encountered this word or occupation before and couldn't find it in any of the usual dictionaries. However, it seems logical to interpret it as either a brick maker or a lime burner (German: Kalkbrenner). Meyers Gazetteer lists a Kunststeinfabrik (artificial stone factory) in Bredstedt and on the map there is a place called Ziegelhof (brick court) nearby. Also lime kilns were found is this area:

Interesting! When you say Meyers Gazetteer "lists" a Kunstseinfabrik. Where would I find this list of places within the city? I've looked at the site and can only see how to access the map. I truly appreciate all of your help.

On the first ("Entry") page for Bredstedt there is the original entry in Meyers in German Fraktur font. It contains a general description of the place, mostly abbreviations. See the Help page and especially the list of abbreviations here: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Abbreviation_Table_for_Meyers_Orts_und_Verkehrs_Lexikon_Des_Deutschen_Reichs
