[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Roll call - Mueller,Manzei,Manthey,Mantei, Rook

[Margrit Weigel]

I suppose that the name Rook was originally Ruck, 
because in Germans it sounds almost  like english Rook.
There lived some families in Volhynia named Ruck or 
even Rock.  Of course, they could haved been named
Wruck, as well, and got rid of the "difficult" W in front
when they came to America.
