(Lk73).
The name was
spelled

(in which the wife’s
maiden name is
Neckermen), 13
and 20).
They are
found in no FSL and
no earlier colony is
indicated; so were
likely one of
Luzern’s first settler families.
RichterFN{J.Georg}:
according to the
Bettinger FSL
this step-son was
living with a
Danecker family
that was fromUC
Wittendorf.

according to the

Neuhoff
married an
Oberritter woman
in 1766 (Mai&Marquardt#693).
RichterFN:
said by the
Orlovskaya FSL

Dr. Waeschke
verified in
Anhalt-Dessau
archival records
that this family

Russia
from
Mosigkau
(Mai&Marquardt#1139).
Richter{Gottlieb,J.Konrad}FN:
I could not find

members of this

Same place as
preceding entry.
RiebenGL, Dessau:

The odds are
very good that this

Brandenburg.
RiebenGL:
also
see
Rupen.
RiebensdorfV,
Voronezh,
Russia: in 1765 a group of 34 families from Wuerttemberg settled on a Count’s estate in this isolated village,
in the political
district of
Woronesch some
300 miles W of
Saratov.
According to
Gwen Pritzgau they
were Lutherans from
the Geman
village
of
Sulzfeld
near
Heilbronn
(Stump p.99 says
these familes were
from
Saxony,
Prussia and the

RiedeselGL,
Darmstadt:
said by the
Krasnoyar FSL to
be homeUC
to a
Walther family.
This
undoubtedly refers
to the
Riedesel Barony
which shared borders
with
Hessen-Darmstadt
but was not a part
of that state.
RiedeselGS
[Barony]:
a small state, i.e.
country, seated in
the town of
Eisenbach,
but the barons,
known as
Riedesel zu
Eisenbach,
themselves usually
lived some 2.5 miles
N in
Lauterbach.
The lands of
the Barony were in
the mid-1700s almost
entirely within the
parishes of
Altenschlirf,
Angersbach, Engelrod,
Freien Steinau ,
Frischborn,
Herbstein,
Hopfmannsfeld,
Lauterbach, Nieder
Moos and

None of the
following references
indicates a locality.

Luebeck ML

Stephan.

Wuerttemberg and from Entringen, Herrenberg [Amt],
Wuerttemberg. Also
spelled
Richert.
Using

the
GCRA proved the
latter origin and
proved that frau
Rieger was a
Lauer from
Pfaeffingen,
Tuebingen [Amt],
Wuerttemberg.

Curt Renz
has found the church
records for this
Hoffnungstal, Bessarabia, family in
Entringen,
Herrenberg Oberamt,
Wuerttemberg.
RiegerFN:
said by the 1798

Schaefer in 1798
nor was it in the
Schaefer FSL.

unidentified place
said by Recruiter
Beauregard’s 1768
list to have been
homeUC to
a
Lotz{Christopher} family (Lk18)
[probable

Rieker/RieckerFN:
Curt Renz

Another
source said this man

Bergdorf was
from
Rohrbonn,
Waiblingen [Amt],
Wuerttemberg,
but the
GCRA did not
find him in the
records of that
place.
Also spelled

GCRA book for
more.
RiekerFN:

RietelspachGL,
Gerbach County:
said by theRye
version of the
Walter FSL to be
homeUC to

The
Walter Research
Group suggests
that this place
might be
Rittersbach, Erbach, but
I doubt that there
was such a place
then under the
control of
Erbach.
See
Riedelbach.
Rietesel(?)GL,
Lauterbach: said
by the
Schwed FSL to be
homeUC to
a

This

Waiblingen [Amt], Wuerttemberg, but
that the family
never appears in
Rohrbronn

Also spelled

says
Schlatserot,
Freie Adelprovinz

RimbachGL,
Schoenberg: is
11.5 km SE of

This seems to

Erbach County..
RimbachGL,
[Schoenborn
County?]: said
to have been homeUC
to the
Lamgolf family (Lk140),
possible early
