      1850 - NC, Rowan Co., Census School District No. 42, 43, 40 and Gold Hill District No. 44 REDWINE Jacob 36 M Farmer $800 NC, Eliza A 32 F NC, William R 12 M NC, & Polly A 8 F NC. Germany, of Bavarian - Pfalz, Annweiler, Euberthal also spelled Eusserthal.
      The name Riedweil and its variations were taken from a place. The suffix -weil or -wyl has the same original meaning as -Wil in the Netherlands and "village" in present day English (all derivatives of the same original word). It is no longer found in German, but can be seen in many place names. The word "Ried" meant damp or swampy. Originally the area where the German tribes settled was quite swampy and moist and there are many words in German that can be traced to this. The name "Rietmller" was found in the records along with Riedweil and tie etymological dictionary lists this as the from the mill that lay next to a "riet" or swampy damp area. Likewise a village near such a place was named "Rietweil" from which the family took their name.
      Turning to German records of the family, the chief problem you face is the absence of church registers for Freckenfeld for the period prior to 1722 (baptisms)/1737 (marriages and burials). You should, however, borrow the Family History Library microfilm copy of the surviving 18th-century Freckenfeld registers (roll #0247602) through your local LDS (Mormon) Family History Center, check the registers through at least 1750 (through 1760 would be better), and abstract every "Ried[/th]weil" or similar listing. I was able to identify the following "miscellaneous" Riedweil entries in the IGI:
      1. Maria Catharina, daughter of Johannes Riedweilen and his wife Magdalena, ~Freckenfeld 1.viii.1723. She may have been the Maria Catharina R. who oo D-76872 Minfeld [the village immediately to the east of Freckenfeld] 22.xi.1757: Jacob Steinfelss.
      2. Anna Appolonia Riedweilin, oo Freckenfeld 10.v.1753: Johann Christian Apffel.
      There are almost certainly other references that I missed. Take special note of the people who act as sponsors for Ried[/th]weil children and for whose children the Riedweils, in turn, act as sponsors: these sponsorships frequently indicate family relationships, and you may be able to construct an extended family, even without dates of birth and marriage. Provided that Johann Ludwig Sr. was born in Freckenfeld and his father died in or after 1737 you should be able to identify the latter, and, from his age at death, the year in which he was born; you may also be able to identify Johann Ludwig Sr.'s mother.
      You should also check the Family History Library microfilm copies of the following church registers for other localities in the Palatinate in which Ried[/th]weil families are known to have lived in the 18th century:
      1. D-76872 Minfeld. The surviving Lutheran church registers begin in 1571 (baptisms and burials)/1685 (marriages): Family History Library microfilm #0193818.
      2. D-76889 D"orrenbach (2 kilometers southwest of Bad Bergzabern, and about 16 kilometers by road northwest of Freckenfeld). The surviving Lutheran church registers begin in 1701 (baptisms)/1691 (marriages)/1690 (burials): Family History Library microfilm #'s 0193048 and 0193049. The IGI contains an abstract of the marriage on 7.i.1738 of Maria Catharina Rietweiler to Joh[ann] Lorentz Bergtholdt; the "@#" notation in the IGI indicates that this record contains an extraordinary amount of genealogical information.
      3. D-67480 Edenkoben. The surviving Lutheran church registers begin in 1699 (baptisms and burials)/1700 (marriages and confirmations), the surviving Reformed church registers in 1666 (baptisms)/1667 (marriages)/1690 (confirmations)/1707 (burials): Family History Library microfilm #'s 0193822 through 0193825. Pay particular attention to these records, since it is possible that Edenkoben is the "Stammheimat" of the Riedweil family in Germany. The earliest--indeed, the only--published reference I have ever found to the surname is the following:

      Rietweil, Hanss, aus dem Berner Gebiet, bisher Hirt zu [D-76833] Siebeldingen [about 5 kilometers due west of Landau], wird am 11.xii.1681 f"ur ein Jahr als Kuhhirt in Edenkoben angenommen [Alfred H. Kuby, "Schweizer Einwanderer in Edenkoben," _Pf"alzische Familien- und Wappenkunde_, Bd. 6 (1967-1969), 285.

      (Given the statement that Hans is from the "Berner Gebiet", the surname is almost certainly derived from CH-3475 Riedtwil, Kanton Bern.) The 17th- and 18th-century registers for Edenkoben have been abstracted and the entries incorporated into
      the IGI. I have been able to identify only the following 2 entries, although there almost certainly others:
      (1) Johannes Rietweil, ...; oo Edenkoben 24.xi.1700: Anna Maria Dordin. "Dordin" may not be a surname but a misreading by an LDS volunteer of "Dorothea", in which case these people are almost certainly the parents of the following:
      (2) Johann Conrad Riedweihl (son of Johannes and Dorothea), ~Edenkoben 28.viii.1707. That cowherds were peripatetic, serving one-year contracts and frequently moving from one locality to another would help to explain how the surname--which is so rare in the Palatinate as to appear unique to a single family--surfaces in a number of different localities in the Palatinate in the early and mid 18th century.
      Aside from church registers, the most important records you should check are <> and notarial records, both of which are deposited in the Landesarchiv Speyer:
      1. The term "Ausfautei" cannot be translated--the <>, which extend from the early 18th century to the 1790's, can best be described as "miscellaneous family records", primarily concerning inheritances and guardianships. Freckenfeld belonged to the Ausfautei Guttenberg (Kandel), whose records are filed as Landesarchiv Speyer, Bestand F 17 (60 vols., 1701-1792); Edenkoben was the seat of an Ausfautei, whose records are filed as Landesarchiv Speyer, Bestand F 14.
      2. Notarial records include a wide range of genealogically important records, including marriage contracts, wills, divisions of inheritance, and sales of property, both real and personal. Landesarchiv Speyer, Abteilung K: Notariate, contain the surviving notarial records for the area of the Bavarian from the late 17th century through the 1930's. The records are arranged by locality and within each locality by the name of the notary. There is no published catalogue to either the Ausfauteiakten or the notarial records in the Landesarchiv Speyer, although there are extensive in-house finding aids. In addition, none of these records has been microfilmed. It is therefore necessary to search these records at the Landesarchiv itself, either in person or through a representative. You can contact the Landesarchiv at the following address: Landesarchiv Speyer Otto-Meyer-Strasse 9 D-67346 Speyer Germany
      The staff of the Landesarchiv are unable to undertake research on behalf of individuals; however, the Landesarchiv does maintain a list it can send you of qualified local researchers who are prepared to undertake such research in return for payment of costs and a suitable honorarium. You can write in clear, concise, non-idiomatic English. Please enclose with your letter at least 2 International Reply Coupons (available at any U.S. Post office for 95 each) to cover the cost of return postage.
      One final institution in Germany you may wish to contact is the Institut f"ur Pf"alzische Geschichte und Volkskunde
      Attn: Roland Paul
      Postfach 28 60
      D-67616 Kaiserslautern Germany
      The Institut maintains a file of over 750,000 references to people immigrating into and emigrating from the Bavarian <>, and may contain additional information either on Hans Rietweil entering the Palatinate from Switzerland or Johann Ludwig R. and his family leaving the Palatinate for America. You can write to Mr. Paul in English: he speaks English fluently, and visits his relatives in Stockton, California, regularly. His budget, however, is minuscule, so please be certain to enclose at least 4 international Reply Coupons to cover the cost of return postage. Michael <>

      The Passage To America
      The transatlantic voyage from the Old World to America was virtually a nightmare for most of those who made the crossing. Normally the voyage took from one to as much as five months, depending upon the prevailing winds.
      Passengers embarked upon small, poorly equipped, and often filthy sailing vessels. Death, sickness, starvation, and even cannibalism were often unwanted companions on long crossings. It was not uncommon for a third of the passengers, or more, to die on a long journey, and even a short crossing was considered to be successful if the death count was kept to around ten percent. The long crossing meant bad food; the water stank and frew slimy, meat spoiled, and butter turned rancid. If the captain or owner was a profiteer, the food was often rotten to begin with. In the small vessels, tossed by the relentless sea, seasickness was a common occurrence. Most of the voyage was spent in bed or heaving over the side.
      A German by the name of Gottlieb Mittelberger, who arrived in Philadelphia in 1750, gave us a vivid account of his crossing, which was typical of most who made the voyage to America. His journey took six months, the people were "packed into the boats as closely as herring...." The water distributed to thirsty passengers was often "very black, thick with dirt and full of worms." Mittelberger's description of conditions on the ship refers to "smells, fumes, horrors, vomiting... boils, scurvy, cancer, mouthrot, ...caused by the age and the highly-salted state of the food, especially the meat... Add to all that, shortage of food, hunger, thirst, frost, heat, dampness, fear, misery, lamentation, and vexation...so many
      lice...that they had to be scraped off the bodies. All this misery reaches its climax when in addition to everything else one must suffer through two to three days and nights of storm...all the people on board pray and cry pitifully together."
      Under such circumstances, what little civilty there might have been collapsed completely. People grew so bitter "that one person begins to curse the other, or himself and the day of his birth, and people sometimes come close to murdering one another. Misery and malice are readily associated, so that people begin to cheat and steal from one another." It is hardly surprising that America, when the immigrants reached it, seemed a land of deliverance: "When at last after the long and difficult voyage the ships finally approach land, "Mittleberger wrote, "for the sight of which the people on board had longed so passionately, then everyone crawls from below to the deck, in order to look at the land.... And the people cry for joy, pray, and sing praises and thanks to God. The glimpse of land revives the passengers, especially those who are half-dead of illness. Their spirits, however weak they had become, leap up, triumph, and rejoice...."
      As difficult as these conditions were, the circumstances of prisoners were, as might be imagined, substantially worse. They were chained below decks in crowded, noisome ranks. One observer who went on board a convict ship to visit a prisoner wrote: "All the states of horror I ever had an idea of are much short of what I saw this poor man in; chained to a board in a hole not above sixteen feet long, more than fifty with him; a collar and padlock about his neck, and chained to five of the most dreadful creatures I have ever looked on." Living conditions were little better than those obtaining on slave ships, and before the voyage was over it was not uncommon to lose a quarter of the human cargo. <>

      We expect to be at "the Cove" in Dalton, Ga next reunion. There has not been a "Redwine Church" there for some 10 years but the Michael Redwine descendants are numerour and very hospitable. We meet in an elementary school cafeteria. From Atlanta take I-75 North to Carbondale Road just South of Dalton. Make a Right and go to Old Hwy 41, make another Right and go a short distance to the school on your Right. I can't remember the name of the school, but I'll ask around and give you more deatailed directions when I can get in touch with someone with a better memory.

      Name: Mr. Lane Carroll Redwine
      Website:
      Referred by: Word of Mouth
      From: 615 Live Oak Dr. Cedar Park, TX 78613 (20 mi N. of Austin)
      Time: 1998-08-15 17:43:28
      Comments: Tex, Thank you for your e-mail that I received 8/14/98, which included a picture of Michael Sr.'s family Bible. I have been working with Carlton Parks of CA to track down the relatinship between John F. Redwine (b. 1800 or 1801 in NC or VA, depending on the Census you prefer) and the NC family that you have traced from Prussia. I have learned that John F. Redwine had 2 brothers, Isaac and Matthew; and each married a daughter of the Pitcher family. Each marriage is recorded in the early records of Bartholomew Co., IN. When I can get away from work long enough to drive downtown to the State Library in Austin, I intend to investigate the 1830 census for that county which lists John F. Redwine on Roll 31, Pg. 207, and lists Isaac Redwine on Rol 31, pg. 203, and lists John and Matthew Redwine, together, on Roll 31, no. 196. My thought is that if John F. is already accounted for in roll 31, p. 207, then the John on page 196 may possibly be the father of the three Redwine boys??? Has anyone found any evidence of the granting of the coat of arms found in Martha Redwine Nelson's 1990 book? I know that there businesses that sell so-called authentic copies of family arms, which can't be relied on.
      While I have e-mail at work (my e-address is below), they did not give me internet access (I suppose they expexct me to work!)My computer at home is an old one that I use only for word processing, and it's not on the net. I'm wondering if there is a way that you could e-mail me the text of the research done in Germany, that I read here? I would shure appreciate it, if you could. I would also like to get more information about your research fund. I'm not wealthy, but this does seem to be the chance of a life-time. Also, I'm wondering if anyone knows the reason that the Redwines moved to the New Land. Were there religeous or political troubles? Here is my known line: John F. Redwine (b. 1800 or 1801 NC/VA) Esquire Redwine (b. 1830 IN) Square David Redwine (b. ~1863,TX; d. 1930, TX; burried Henrietta, TX) John E. Redwine (b. 1898, Grayson Co., TX; d 1973; burried Midland, TX) Stanley Redwine (b. 1930, TX) Lane Redwine (b. 1964, TX) CarolAnn Redwine (b. 1998, TX) I will copy you with anything I learn, as you requested in your e-mail. <>

      J. M. Redwine, M. D. The short sketch that here appears is that of one of the reliable and deservedly successful physicians of Randolph County, whose experience has proven him to be well qualified for the position he has chosen. He was born in Marshall County, Ky., March 30, 1852, his parents, Jacob and Mary (Thomasson) Redwine, having been born in North Carolina and Tennessee, respectively. They both removed to Kentucky prior to their marriage, and there united their fortunes in the year 1847, becoming the parents of eleven children, eight being now alive: W. C., who resides in Clay County, Ark.; Dr. H. C., also a resident of Clay County, where he is a practicing physician and merchant; Mattie E., a teacher of this county; Jennie L., wife of M. L. Gilbert, of Dade City, Fla.; Jacob, Jr., who lives in Kentucky; Amanda J., wife of Charles Dishman, of Kansas, and Hiram G., now in a law school in the East. Jacob Redwine has always followed the occupation of farming and merchandising, and is now residing in Kentucky. He was in the Union army during the late war, and served in Company B, of the Fifteenth Kentucky Cavalry, as a private, but was discharged at the end of twelve months, his term of enlistment having expired. The principal engagement in which he took part was at Spring Creek, near Lexington, Tenn., being under Col. Henry. Since the war he has resided on his farm in Kentucky, and is now fairly well-to-do. He votes the Republican ticket. Our subject, Dr. J. M. Redwine, received fairly good advantages for acquiring an education, being an attendant of the common schools of Kentucky. He first engaged in teaching school and clerking in a dry goods store, and during this time his leisure moments were given to the study of medicine, which profession had always had a fascination for him. After attending medical lectures he entered upon the practice of that profession in Kentucky, in 1876, and followed it there and in Tennessee two years. From 1878 to 1881, he practiced in Randolph County, Ark., and from that time until 1884 he was a practitioner of Benton County. He has since resided in this county, and has acquired a large and profitable practice, [p.422] and in his journeys to alleviate the sufferings of the sick, the sunshine of his disposition, as well as his medical skill, is brought to bear upon his patients, and the result is very satisfactory. He has a fertile little farm of forty acres, and in connection with his practice was engaged in farming and merchandising until within the last few years. He is a Republican politically, and is a member of the A. F. & A. M. He was married, October 28, 1879. to Miss Malena E., a daughter of John and Permelia E. (Mosely) Mabry, who became the parents of twelve children, six now living: Robert M., Mattie T. (Greer), Novella (Greer), William D., John, and Malena E. (Mrs. Redwine), the latter born on Blue-Grass soil. Dr.
      and Mrs. Redwine have become the parents of two children: Ethel, born September 1, 1884, and Edith, born September 17, 1887
