- Hans Kofoed Olufsen must have inherited (circa 1655?) his father's freeman's estate, Blykobbeg?rd in Nyker parish; at which time he attained the rank of a "Frimand" (Freeman). However, he must have lost Freeman status when he later sold Blykobbeg?rd to Ernst Canseler, the deed of sale is dated January 11, and February 1, 1671. Hans Kofoed Olufsen also inherited Frig?rd, 15 Vdg. Vestermarie, from his father. He purchased Ladeg?rd, 50 Slg. in Klemensker parish, on November 13, 1676, and lived there for the rest of his life. According to his probate he held the rank of Corporal (Korporal). Hans Kofoed Olufsen's seal combines both the chevron (sparre) image of the R?nne-branch of the Kofoed-family with the Bjergegaard-family's pike's jawbone (geddek?ft) image.
From Bornholm's Jordebog of 1658, compiled during the Swedish occupation of the island:
Hans Koofood Olsen hafver med hofvodg?rden Blykobbeg?rd: 2 G?rder.
V?ster H?radh, Nykier Sochn, S?the og Fryg?rder: Frimman Hans Koofot Olsens - Blykobbeg?rd. . . 0 Daler, 0 ?re, 0 Penningar.
According to the above 1658 land-book "Frimman Hans Koefot Olsen" held the estate-farm Blykobbeg?rd, which had 2 farms attached to it: 1 farm in Nyker parish (farmed by Jacob Jensen), and 1 farm in Ibsker parish (farmed by Henrich Andersen).
In 1657 the Danish King, Frederik III, declared war on Sweden. In early 1658 the war turned badly for Denmark and the King was forced to sue for peace, and in the resulting Peace of Roskilde - negotiated in February of 1658 - Denmark lost its provinces in the southern part of the Swedish peninsula: Sk?ne (aka Scania), Blekinge and the district of Bohus, also Trondheim (in Norway), and the island of Bornholm. The Bornholmers rebelled in December of 1658, and by December 29th a deputation was sent to K?benhavn to inform King Frederik III that Bornholm was once again Danish.
That generation of Kofoeds was strongly represented in the early hours of the uprising: besides the leader Jens Pedersen Kofoed, there were his brother Mads Kofoed, his cousins from Blykobbeg?rd: Hans and Claus Olufsen Kofoed, and his sister's husband Villum "Kelou" Clausen. The location of these events was R?nne's mainstreet: Storegade; along which were located the Kofoed families homes, side-by-side with Mayor Peder Laursen's house. R?nne was still very small at that time, the current large town-square was then only a green area with trails leading out to the surrounding farmsteads. Further down the street, across from the present latin-school, was the old town-hall; before which are placed memorial stones to commemorate the spot where Printzensk?ld was shot dead. The dramatic shots fired by Jens Kofoed and Niels Guml?se into the already dead enemy were significant: this legitimized Villum Clausen's questionable murder of Printzensk?ld as part of the uprising, now everyone was equally responsible - there was no going back!
After the successful rebellion of 1658 Peder Olsen and a delegation of 10 other men were sent to K?benhavn. They were granted and audience with King Frederik the 3rd on December 29th, and presented him with a "gavebrev" (gift deed - a pledge of allegiance) from their island. They also brought a list of the names of 22 Bornholmers who had a prominent role in the liberation of the island: first on the list was "Hr. Poffuel Ancker Sougnepr?st til Rydskier och Hasle Sougner haffer V?rit baade i Raad och Daad til all denne Hans Kongl. May:tts tienneste med Toug, Vagt Reystning, och endnu flittig bes?ger land Vagterne." (Mr. Poul Ancher, Parish Priest for Rutsker and Hasle Parishes, having Done both in Counsel and Deed all in the His Royal Majesty's interest with this Campaign, Guard Duty, and continuing diligent Defence of the land.) There were 10 men from R?nne named on the list: Mayor Claus Kames, Hans Christensen (Storch), Willum Clausen (Kelou), Skipper Hans Lauridsen, Skipper Jens Jensen, Anders Staale, Morten Mortensen, Oluf Andersen, Mads Kofoed Pedersen and Mogens Tidemand; 10 men from Hasle: Poul Ancher, Jens Kofoed Pedersen, Byfoged Niels Guml?se, Ridefoged Jens Lauridsen (Risom), Aage Svendsen, Claus Nielsen, Erland Olufsen, "Rigens Hofmesters tjener" (the Kingdom's Steward's servant) Hans Mathiasen and an unnamed second servant; and 2 from Nyker: freeman Hans Kofoed Olsen and his brother Claus Kofoed Olsen.

Hans Kofoed Olufsen's daughter Karen is the subject of a court case detailed in the N?rre Herred Tingbog 1678-1684. On 19th of January 1683 a case is brought against Karen by her former employer Regitze Grubbe of R?nne for Karen having left her employ as a housemaid before her contract had expired. Karen's father Hans Kofoed of Ladeg?rd explains was that his daughter Karen had left service becauset she had not had "godt Mad oc ?ell hos hendes Naade, i medens hun boede hos hende" (good food and beer with her pardon, the while she lived with her). District Bailiff Daniel Barch read out a letter, which Regitze Grubbe had presented in court, written by Karen to Trumpeter Frantz Schmidt. The case reconvened on the 9th of February wherein Hans Kofoed Olufsen gave his description of the dispute between his daughter and Regitze Grubbe. Regitze's representative, Alderman Hans Olsen of R?nne, stated that he thought it was unreasonable to be paid 2 Mark in "f?stepenge" (copyhold money) for only 6 weeks of service in addition to the 4 Mark of "tjenestel?n" (service salary). A judgement on the case was handed down on the 16th of March: namely that Regitze Grubbe felt that she had engaged Karen's services from "Michelsdag til Paaske" (Michaelmas to Easter: September 29, 1682 to April 8, 1683) and that she had paid 2 Mark in copyhold money and 1 dollar in salary. Hans Kofoed believed that only a month's service agreed upon. The District Bailiff sentenced Karen to pay damages and that Regitze spoke true from copyhold money size. Hans Kofoed could not be convicted of having concealed Karen, as she was his daughter and it was natural that the girl had sought refuge with him. The fine was the agreed upon copyhold amount.

Da naar hand til b?rlig erlenger sin betahlning og bliffuer for n?yet eftter h?yeste rettes dom, saa skal pantebreffued, vere d?d og magtesl?s. Huor det findes, og aldrig komme Hans Koefod eller hans hustru, b?rn, og arffuinger, til hinder eller skade udi nogen maader. Dette till endelig paa kiendelse udi denne indsteffnte sag.
