ENG: One man has lived in Vanamõisa - Kleiso Mart - who dug his roots into these lands already more than 300 years ago. As no written records have survived we simply do not know about earlier times. However, it is certain that he was among those four people in Vanamõisa who survived the devastations of the Great Northern War, famine and plague. His home was here in the Kleiso farm of the Kerguta village, as it was called at the time. His children and also their children grew up here, they felt safe and secure. Today the 12th-14th generation of descendants of Kleiso Mart and his wife Anne live in Vanamõisa, Estonia and elsewhere in the world. This sculpture of Kleiso Mart is a symbolic bow of gratitude and respect by the Vanamõisa people to their ancestors to commemorate them.
EST: Vanamõisas on elanud üks mees - Kleiso Mart - kes kinnitas siia maile oma juured juba vähemasti 300 aastat tagasi. Varasemat aega me lihtsalt ei tea, varasemast puuduvad kirjalikud allikad. Küll aga on tema üks neist neljast inimesest, kes oli jäänud Vanamõisas ellu pärast laastavat Põhjasõda, näljahäda ja katku. Siin, tollase Kerguta küla Kleiso talus oli tema kodu, siin sirgusid tema lapsed. Neilgi oli siin hea ning kindel olla ja nende lastel omakorda samuti. Tänasel päeval elavad nii Vanamõisas, Eestis kui mujal maailmas Kleiso Mardi ja tema naise Anne 12.-14. põlvkonna järglased. Kleiso Mardi skulptuuri püstitamise läbi on vanamõislased teinud tänukummarduse oma esivanematele ja jäädvustavad nende mälestuse.
