Betty, as you by now possibly know, Ruenderoth is east of Cologne, 
just N of Hwy E40, a little East of Engelskirchen.  I have names in 
R.:  Anna Christina Goes (d. of pastor Caspar Goes) and several 
individuals with the name Bohle/Boell/Bolenius. all in the 1700's.

Does anyone know the location RUENDEROTH, RHEINLAND, PRUSSIA? Is in 
Germany or Poland?

It was shown as the birthplace of someone who may be an ancestor 
although to my knowledge this ancestor was born in Poland. JewishGen 
Gazetteer or Kartenmeister came up with nothing. Is Google correct 
placing it in Germany?

Hi Betty -

I looked in my trusty old Meyers-Orts -1912 gazetteer - most LDS 
places have a set - in Volume II, page 644:

R?deroth; a Dorf (village) in Prussia, Hessen-Nassau- government 
district Wiesbaden.   There were 270 residents as of 1910, there is a 
Standesamt, and an Evangelical parish.

Meyers-Orts is a bible for us Germanic researchers - I wouldn't rely 
on Google for anything.   Prussia covered a huge swath of several 
countries, Germany and Poland and others, at various times, so it 
helps to look at old maps and histories too.

The Rheinland and Hessen-Nassau are both in present-day Deutschland.

You can write it as Ruederoth, but for Germans it should be R?deroth 
(using the ALT key and 129 on the ASCII keys to the right).

Maureen
