1. Re:[Gus-REEB] Some Franklin County, Ohio Marriages [1]
Great information John! Thank you so much for sharing your research with us! Although most of these names are a 'disconnect' to the family tree that I have, it is good to record this information in the event that we can some day connect them to our family tree. I'm learning every day as I read your emails (and others as well). Harlan M. Zeinstra Raph descendent
2. Re: [GUS-REEB] Early Rapps were not Reebs [1]
John, then there is the "Rappe" story and believe it or not, I do have one tax receipt for Scott county Mississippi where it is actually spelled as Rappe and has nothing to do with the story at all -seemingly coincidental -guess the person that wrote it couldn't possibly believe it could be spelled like he heard it- Hah!

3. Re: [GUS-REEB] HARASS-Thanks John [1]
Linda, Thanks for the explanation. It did seem that they were on the right track or at least the documentation all seemed to be in order etc. but somehow it did not seem right to me. So I kept hoping they would find something that would explain but then I just received a kind of short e-mail suddenly which really did not explain much of anything except that it sounded that they had lost interest. Since I seem to run into this quite often even with people who are definately known to be kin, it just seemed li
4. Rayes/Rapes [1]
does anyone happen to know if the surname Raye with that spelling also comes from any other known sources besides us Rapes changing to Raye. I know there are other Rayes here in GA besides my family but earlier this week my Mom got a phone call from somebody looking for his Georgia Rayes. One he was searching for was a Donald Raye. Mom not caring that much for all my babbling on this subject does however remember once meeting Donald Rape/Rapp and told the guy she thought Donald had been dead for year
5. Re: [GUS-REEB] Oops Re: Reeb [1]
Sorry Harlan, No that is not right. For a moment forget which of these men pertain to which branch of the family. Starting in the time of the late 1500s there were three men of the Reeb name living in the town of Herbitzheim. These men were named Heinrich, Jacob & Nicolaus. Civil (Notary) documents refer to the men Jacob & Nicolaus as brothers however we have no document to state specifically the relation of Jacob & Nicolaus to Heinrich. Now since I will be referring to some others of the same names I w

I have not checked the list of the present subscribers to the GUS-REEB-L@rootsweb.com (list) recently so I am not exactly who is still on the list. However, I want to thank those of you who are here and to tell you that I appreciate your participation and espiecially the messages and responses to the posts of others. I am not certain whether Harlan is back with us or not but I am hoping he is and if not I am hoping he will return soon. A few weeks ago I had noticed an unsubscription to the list from Harlan
7. Re: [GUS-REEB] What does Johann at the beginning of most of the Reeb male for... [1]
Come to think of it, I have also heard some say that their name Rene was not pronounced as "Renn-Nay" and I sort of think this may be the great American spirit of independance stemming back to the time of our American Revolution when Americans yearned for complete freedom not just for themselves but from any and everything that reminded them that we, our government, economy and even our culture was too dependant upon Europe. Afterall, Rene' sounds very French and while France did send Lafayette to help us g
8. Re:[Gus-REEB] Some Franklin County, Ohio Marriages [1]
Harlan, Thanks for the alert. I was in error and had looked at the spouses date and entered it for both, sorry about my mistake. The correct date of birth was 6 Jan 1862 for August Reeb and the correct date for Mary Elizabeth Gaster was 14 May 1874. Their marriage date was 8 March 1899. August was son of Joseph Reeb and Barbara Crontz (this is the spelling of her maiden name in the marriage record, however, I am not certain this is the correct spelling. Just for informational purposes this Joseph Reeb was
9. Re: Reeb [1]
Very interesting! If I read this correctly, the father of our Heinrich Reeb (baptized in 1599) was Jacob Reeb? And this Jacob had both our Heinrich and this Michael? If this is true, then I've just been made aware of another generation of my family tree that I didn't know about!

John, I know there is a way to find various symbols in the computer such as "greek" letters etc. but since I haven't needed them I haven't tried to find them. I did find out when transcribing Jacob Nathaniel Rape's letters though that there is no symbol on the computer keyboard for "cents" (as in $ and "cents") like there was on typewriters. Not all names have lost their extra symbols as in the various forms of Rene' (mine), Renee, Renae etc. although unless your keyboard is set up to slant the acce
11. Oops Re: Reeb [1]
No, no, no ... I think I now understand. Our Heinrich (b 1599) was a brother to jacob (b 1604).

12. Re:[Gus-REEB] Some Franklin County, Ohio Marriages [1]
Harlan, I want to inform you that it is people like you who respond to these posts which encourages me and probably others, who like to share information with others, to continue the sharing. I understand that many if not most of the subscribers to the Gus-Reeb list may not recognize the Reebs who have lived in Columbus, Ohio area (Franklin County) as they are not descendants of Gustavus Reeb, the father of Peter, Gustavus, Nicolaus, and Michael who emigrated from Pisdorf to Pennsylvania in the 1750s, the
13. HARASS-Thanks John [1]
Hi John, "Linda, please let me know about the two ladies who we did hear from, whether you think they are Rape descendants or not. John V." Thank you very much for your reply---you are very kind and so generous with your information. To answer your above question, the two ladies were Emily Osborn and Dotty Lay (sisters). When I contacted the Christian County Genealogical Society looking for information on my William Lincoln Angel, Rosella Brookens sent me copies of letters, documents, etc. from t
14. Re: [GUS-REEB] Ron Miller [1]
Dear Group, I want to thank John V. Reeb for inviting me to join this group. Also, thanks to all of you who have welcomed me to it. John and I have been comparing notes about the Reebs in Alsace and have made an interesting time of it. To start, I have to say that I am not descended from any Reebs who came to America so all my research has been related to those in Alsace. Their descendants married into the Muller (Miller) family of Herbitzheim, and my ancestors, the Millers, came to America in 182
15. Re: [GUS-REEB] Re: Reeb [1]
No, I am sorry if I did not tell it right. We have found no document to precisely state a relationship between our early Heinrich Reeb (by this I mean we the descendants of Gustavus Reeb...in other words Peter, Gustavus (younger), Michael (Harlan's direct line immigrant ancestor) and others. What we know is that when Jacob's son Heinrich was baptized (infant) in Herbitzheim (village about 3 to 6 miles north of Keskastel) our Heinrich Reeb's wife was the godmother. Jacob's wife then had a daughter in 1602 na
16. Ron Miller [1]
I may have posted my welcome of Ron to the the list just a little too soon, so perhaps I should explain. Ron and I have been communicating via e-mail for a few months. Not sure, but I think that Ron may have found some of my posts on the internet about Reeb family genealogy. Although, naturally Ron is interested in the genealolgy but more importantly our conversations have mostly been about the earlier family histories in that area which is in modern days known as the western portion of the department (si
17. Re: Reeb [1]
Harlan, As for Anton Gartner, I do not have a record. However, although I have no documentation for him, I suspect that he may have been related to another branch of Werner Reeb's Ameircan cousins, that would be the St. Clair County, Illinois Reebs. My only clue, however, is that I do see the name Gartner or Gaertner in my files on St. Clair County, Illinois Reebs. I will check further into this and let you know if I find anything. Joseph W. Hodel was son of John Hodel and Elisa Reeb and was born in Fount

John, thank you for the bit about German naming customs that was interesting about baptismal names and what they were actually called. Know of any good books on the subject of German naming practices and also how their surnames came about? Rhonda
19. Early Rapps were not Reebs [1]
During the years I have been actively involved in the genealogy of my Rape ancestry. and which later became known as my Reeb ancestry, I have always strived to seek out the truth and correct genealogy pertaining to our family history. At some time during the year of 1979 a cousin (now deceased) of my father told me about a retired lawyer in Dallas, Texas who had been actively researching the genealogy of our own Rape family. After I expressed interest in the research of this retired Dallas lawyer, my father

REEB-ROOTS-L@rootsweb-com is the URL for the Reeb-Roots list. If you are not already subscribed to that list type in REEB-ROOTS-L-subscribe@rootswebcom and then type in the word "subscribe" in both the subject line and in the body of the e-mail without the parenthesis of course.

21. What does Johann at the beginning of most of the Reeb male forefathers mean??? [1]
this prefix or title is the first name of each male Reeb through the late 1700's .( I am looking at the Reeb family chart or tree) given to me by Juanita Rape when I first started discussing geneology with her. John V.Reeb's name is on a little square with his address of Ca. so I would assume it was distributed by you John. The first name that doesn't have "Johann" as its prefix was when the spelling changed to Rape so John Francis Rape (son of Johann Peter Reeb) was the first to drop the
22. Ron F. Miller [1]
Please welcome Ron F. Miller to the Gus-Reeb e-mail list. I have recently posted about my having made contact with Ron a few months ago. Ron is a descendant of Agnes REEB, daughter of Heinrich REEB. This is the younger of two early Heinrich Reebs who we had up to about five years ago carried an approximate birth year of 1602 based upon his age given in the record of his death, however, I came to believe that he was indeed the same Heinrich REEB who was baptized in 1599 in Herbitzheim, and at which baptism o
23. Re: [GUS-REEB] Early Rapps were not Reebs [1]
Rhonda, Yes, I agree with you and I too have had more than one experience with Americans who do not believe it possible that a name could be Rape. Funny thing is they are still wrong even if our own name was not originally Rape. I sometimes wished that I had a copy or even a photocopy of the page in Rietstaps Armorial General which is a very old publication wherein they listed the many Coats of Arms. Not only does one find RAPPE there but also one will see three different descriptions for coats of arms for

Linda, Well I am surprized to hear from you and in the past few days I was reminded about your branch of the family as recently I am hearing from a lady in Texas who is not a Reeb/Rape but her aunt by marriage was recently widowed and this lady is very much into genealogy so she is trying to learn as much as possible. In her case, the aunt is a descendant of John Rape the son of Gustavus who Early Settlers of Sangamon and even his age at time of death indicates he was born 1794 and in SC. Her link to him is
