I tried Google last night and got nowhere. Then I went to Michelin website for maps for Germany, and it came back with 14 entries, all with different spelllings. I did this because in looking for Retterode, Hesse-Kassel while doing my own research, I found it that way to be quite nearby Kassel, but in Thuringen province, and now spelled Rotterode. Is it possible that Hesse Kassel as it was then is now split up among neighboring provinces? The closest to Kassel was Grevenhagen, located in Westphalen, just east of Paderborn, about half way between Horn and Bad Driburg. With limited knowledge of Germany, it appears that one or two of the others might qualify as well.
