Notes:

Rannsbrunnerhof was originally established by another Cistercian monastery, Sturzelbronn. “The buildings (in 1999) were old and rustic but the Hertzler family living in them at the time had restored parts of the house. Rannsbrunnerhof translates ‘Farm of the Raven Spring.’ The original spring still trickles into a well under the house. Both the spring’s internal access in the cellar for house use and the external access outside the cellar door for farm use are framed in stone openings, the edges of which show the wear from centuries of drawing water.”

Peter was a deacon of the Evangelical Mennonite Church at Groveland. He signed the bond document for his sister-in-law, Anna’s, guardianship of her children after her husband Andrew died.

Other Events and Attributes:

• Immigration: 1830, New Orleans, LA

Notes:

“On Sept. 13, 1808 a death entry for Susanna was placed in civil records at Niderhoff. It stated that she was born April 4, 1808 (matching her birth entry there), was a daughter of miller Jacob Oyer and his wife Susanne Charzes [Schertz], and had died at age 5 months, 6 days. It was signed by grandfather Hans Oyer, 56; father Jacob Oyer; and uncle Joseph Oyer, 32. We cannot explain the motives for this entry. Jacob brought a 22-year-old daughter Susanna with him when he sailed on the Superior; she is buried in Guth Cemetery, and a photograph of her headstone can be found in the county cemetery book. It says she died Dec. 12, 1888 or 1889, at 79 years, 8 months, and 7 days – either one year and one day, or simply one day off the civil entry birth date. “
