Hi Debbie,
Yes, I heard that same story, I beleive from the research notes of Adeline Redheffer.I know of no definitive connection, however, there reportedly a marriage between Mary Redheffer and a "Samuel West."Samuel West is a rather common name but I have not identified him yet.
We are cousins.I am descended from John Curtis Redheffer, son of William H. Redheffer and Mary Curtis, as I think you are.
My John Curtis Redheffer married Anna Elizabeth Freedley and moved to Chicago.
There are many of us researching these Rothenhoeffer lines.Variations on the original German name are:
Redheffer, Redifer, Redefer, Roadifer, Readheffer, Rodeffer, etc.They are all related to the same two German brother who immigrated from Rappenua but who originated before that in Biberach.The Rothenhoefers are well documented.
Kind regards,
Nancy Redheffer
