He belonged to the Anabaptist movement, the Mennonites. In the Ottenweier estate records as in the community records the name Reidiger has also been spelled as: Reitiger, Reitenger, Riediger, Rediger, Rodiger, Reutiger and Reudinger. As did his predecessor, the Mennonite Johann Georg Rieder who managed the estate from 1720-1763, Sebastian (Basch) Reidiger, conducted religious meetings at the estate and at the close by forest, the Anabaptist forest, for his family and the hired hands. There, one can still find a huge, round table made from sandstone on which the adult baptismal candidates have been registered.”
