    2. Dear listmembers, here are some more of the names I looked up for some of you. You can be sure, that I write everything that is given to the person, unfortunately the wifes name is hardly ever mentioned. But at least you have a clue in which churchbooks to look. 21. Cindy Abraham Rouzee, Rousee,Rozee, present day it's Rowzee, Rowsey. Roze 2860 Jean ROZE, de Tournay, Tisserant en Toile, et sa femme (in Prentzlau, Uckermark) Rozet 221 Isaac ROZET, du Languedoc (Cologne = Berlin, see note to Hussain) 22. Jim & Muriel Gambrel Would you please look for the name Gambrelle? Gambrelle - no entry 23. Hussain: Any more to ...Where is Mannheim?- Cologne and name Septsous Mannheim is just on the other side of Rhine river than Ludwigshafen, today it is a twin city. At that time it must have belonged to Brandenburg (the duchy) somehow or it wouldn't be mentioned in the book. Neukoelln, now one of the parts of Big-Berlin used to be Rixdorf until 1913 then changed to Neukoelln and became part of Berlin in 1920. The other mentioned Cologne or Coelln in Berlin, is located now directly in the city center. Again two towns at both sides of a river (Spree) Berlin and Coelln formed the later Berlin. (Berlin is my hometown so I did learn all this in school). Septsous or so are some: Setsou 1570 Jean Setsous, de Metz, Jardinier, sa femme et trois enfans (in Berlin Friedrichstadt) Setsous 1582 Jacques Setsous, de Metz, Jardinier, sa femme et quatre enfans (in Berlin Friedrichstadt) (and in additions) also spelled Sessous, Septsous and Setsou Setsou 2614 Pierre SETSOU, jeune garcon, du Pays Messin, Ouvrier de bas au metier
