As Heinz mentioned, "asperavallani" is Rauenthal (apparently he knows more Latin than me) If you are doing genealogy in the Rheingau area you should take a look to Norbert Michel's website http://home.t-online.de/home/michel-walluf/ He is kind of a guru in Rheingau genealogy.

Particularly to Carl who provided me with the translation of Eltville for the Latin altavillani. The church records were from Neudorf/Martinsthal and Rauenthal which are villages near Eltville. Is it possible that asperavallani/asperavallenis/asperavalensis might refer to Rauenthal in the same way as altavillani referred to Eltville? > > Val > > > ==== HESSE Mailing List ==== > Going on Vacation?
