Great info. I am new to researching my Risinger Lineage, but I do know I am a descendant of Jacob Mariah Risinger by way of his son John Franklin Risinger, then his son Julius William Risinger, then his son Lee Risinger, then his son Royce I Risinger, then his son Royce R Risinger and through his son my dad Royce I Risinger. By the time it came to Julius he was born or married in Bibb Alabama and settled in Gonzales county Texas. His son Lee settled into Bandera, Texas. They stay in Bandera till my grandfather Royce R Risinger and his siblings were born. Then all of his siblings stayed around San Antonio, Texas area. My grandfather went to Hawaii met my grandmother had my dad and decided to live in California. To my knowledge he was the only Risinger sibling to leave Texas.

If anyone has anymore clear info from Jacob Mariah back into Germany it would be much appreciated ... Email me: jrancestry82@gmail.com or private message me.
