I am descended from a son of Anna Elisabeth Leib who married to Johann Ernst Rossteuscher, a butcher, in 1787 at Streufdorf/Hildburghausen, Thuringia, Germany, which at the time was a Sachsen Dutchy, and also part of Hessen at one time.
I had the Rossteuscher line researched by the Evangelical archivist at Eisenacht, Thüringen but did not ask that the Leib line be researched in 2010. The Rossteuscher line is recorded there back to a man born 1692, from Westhausen. Prior to that, they are are likely in another archive, either Roman Catholic, or lived in another location.
The Eisenach Archive reported only the marriage and that Anna Elisabeth Leib is a daughter of Johann Tobias Leib (butcher & host, born Streufdorf) and his wife Anna Elisabeth Graf, born21 Dec 1768, died 05 Jan1804.
Online, I have found other Leib's and their relatives in the area. I hope to find out that they are related to Johann Tobias Leib:
