RohlederVV: aka Raskaty, Roskaty, and
Rolleder, was a German Catholic village on the eastern side of the Volga
founded in 1766. Betty Hoffman shared with us the FSL that was published by
Anthony J. Leiker (Pavel M. Leus, trans.) in 2002; several geographical
identifications added by the editor and others in this edition are iffy
since it was not then known that many place names in the FSL were countries,
not localities. According to this, the first settlers were from the
following places with the family names shown here in parens. If a family
name occurs more than once among the first settlers, given names in {}
brackets follow the family name. The number after a name is its FSL
household number:

came fromUC Wingen, Weissenburg [Amt],

proved their origin in Holvingen, Forbach [Kreis],
Lothringen-Elsass. See the GCRA book for more.
RohrbachGL, Isenburg[-Buedingen County]: 3
miles NW of Buedingen, and was said by KS:131 and by the
Stumpp version of the Balzer FSL to be home
of Grasmick/Grasmueck families.
Rohrbach parish records say two
Grasmuck families left their home in Rohrbach for Russia in 1766 (Mai&Marquart#1254,
#1256); they also say Popp with his wife and children left here in
1766 (#1255) – the widow and children were in the Balzer FSL.
Bonner proved this origin both for the Grasmck husband and for his
May wife. Bonner also proved this home to the Bopp woman
who married one of the Messinger men who settled in Balzer,
and of the Weber step-daughter of one of the Grasmueck men.
Said by the Buedingen ML to be home to the Bopp man who in
1766 married a Stickel woman; by 1767 this couple was in Norka:

the Germanies at the time; Wuerttemberg was one of them.

Gueldendorf, Odessa; family records found by
Curt Renz in Neubulach, Calw Oberamt, Wuerttemberg.

spelled Rolesn? (Mai1798:Sm47).

Rommers near Fulda in Hessen. (Mai&Marquardt#633).
HeinFN said by the Frank FSL to be fromUC
Hirschfeld, Freie Adelprovinz der alten Ritter(?).
Doris Evans says
research by Anneliese Micheiwski for the Frank Research fund confirms that a
Hein/Heun man said to have come from Gersfeld was born in
Rommers, Free Noble Province of Ancient Knights. The original spelling
evidently was Heun. An ancestor of his was mayor of Gersfeld in
1649.
RometschFN: the likely preferred spelling for Raschez.
