Quick Update

In preparation for my trip to Kassel, I have been studying the records that I have thus far accumulated from the Landeskirchliches Archiv--Kassel and have made a few corrections or found additional information that reflects on the info which I have given to the Fab Four--You know who you are.

Be sure to update your files with this info:

√ Correction: Johann Tobias Rödiger was born on 9 Sept 1797, not the 7th as was previously thought. This comes from both his baptismal record and his death record in the Tann Church Book.

√Correction: Anna Margaretha (Eichenauer) Rödiger, second wife of the above JT Rödiger was born in Niederthalhausen, Hersfeld-Roenburg, Hesse. It may be that I told you that she was born in Tann. Not for sure whether I did or not. Her Baptismal Record is recorded in the Niederthalhausen Church Book and her death record in the Tann Church Book says she was born there.

√Addition: Catharina Rödiger, daughter of George Rödiger and Anna Martha Scheuch, who was born 4 April 1883 in Tann and died 14 April 1883 in Tann, was buried on 16 April 1883, presumably also in Tann. This additional information comes from her death record in the Tann Church Book on the same page as Anna Eva (Heÿer) Rödiger's death record.

√Addition: Johann Tobias Rödiger's first wife was Anna Eva Heÿer. Her mother was Anna Katharina Lehn. I am absolutely sure of her first and middle name and her maiden name does appear to be "Lehn", but I have put a question mark after it in my records because I am not familiar with that last name and my proficiency in Fraktur handwriting recognition is still somewhat limited. Not to mention the fact that the scribe of this document is particularly sloppy. Just so you know--there could be a revision on her maiden name in the future.

√Addition: One of Justus Rödiger's daughters was Margaretha, b. 3 Mar 1879, in Tann. I now know who she married and when. Anna Margaretha Rödiger was married to Balthazar Zuschlag in Rohrbach, Hersfeld-Rotenburg, Hesse on 8 July 1905. Balthazar was born in Tann on 17 June, 1865 to Peter Zuschlag and Anna Maria--I'll take a stab at her maiden name but please don't hold me to it--Garmeros? May not be right, but it is a place to start. This record comes from Sheet 6, Nr. 6 of:
