In the early 18th century Kruševlje was again abandoned, and later mentioned in 1740 as a part of county named "Somborski Šanac" (English:" The Trench of Sombor"). It was noted down as "puszta", meaning in Hungarian wasted, deserted, empty land. It is similarly recorded again in 1746 on the land map made by Anton Karlschmidt. It is possible however, that some Serb soldiers of the military border had been living in Kruševlje between 1720 and 1746. As the military border was abolished in 1746, they moved away and in 1746 it was called "puszta" again.
