I have done some research and found out, that the probably most famous member of the Ryterski-family was a knight, called Peter Ryterski, who lived in the 15th century in Poland. According to the famous chronogist Jan Dlugosch in his "Annales" he was appointed to educate the King's two sons Wladislaw and Casimir, to teach them to read and how to behave correctly in 1457. Maybe it would be possible, if could let me know, if you have got any information about the Ryterski family before they immigrated to the USA ?
