Marian ( and others)- If one puts each of those villages into Shtetlseeker and sets Flomborn as the reference point (the origin point that I have for the Dietrichs in my genealogy), one get the following distances (in miles) from Flomborn: Kottweiler = 32 Schwedelbach = 28 Dietschweiler = 37 Kirchmohr = 34 Niedermohr = 35 Schrollbach = 35 Glan-Munchweiler = 36. Thus, I think a connection is possible for a family of school teachers and might be worth pursuing.
