Johann Georg Feiock [spelled Veiock in the Pfalz] was born about 1804, probably in Darstein, Pfalz. He was listed as 45 in 1850 & 52 in the 1858 census; but his sister, Jakobina was born in 1805 [based on her age at death] and he is older. I have not been able to find the Pfalz records for this family. They lived in Darstein, a village a couple km north of Vorderweidental. There are no church records after 1798, so one can only rely on the civil records, which do exist. However, in 1998, we were unable to spend enough time at the Standesamt in Bad Bergzabern to locate these records. One day we hope to do more searching there or obtain information by mail. Johann Georg moved to Kischinew [now Chischinau, capital of Moldova], probably in the early 1860s, but certainly after the 1858 census. We have not found a death record for Johann Georg Feiock, but he died before May 1864. His son, Jacob [born 1837 Rohrbach], was married in Chotin [near Kischinew] on 3 May 1864, to Karolina Kulmann [who came from Uskerthal in Galicia]. The marriage records describes Jacob's parents as--Georg Feijak, a Dienst [laborer] of Lubel gesellschaft [a company in Kischenew] and Barbara, both deceased [the 1858 census says Barbara died in 1855]. Jacob was a machinist by Riegler [the name of his employer in Kischinew]. What happened to the couple is unknown to me, but they might have moved to Galicia, as I have had email contact with an American descendent of a Jacob Feiock, who emigrated from Austrian Galicia, whose age is awfully close.Note from Wiest Family History

The following is taken from the book, "Homesteaders on the Steppe" by Joseph S. Height. The Beresan districtThe colony of Rohrbach. Est. 1809 The village of Rohrbach was located in the Zerigul valley, 40 versts west of the Bug river, and 100 versts northeast of Odessa. It was only 20 versts from Landau, which was the administrative center of the newly established Beresan Colony. The Crownland apportioned to the colony of Rohrbach amounted to 8,333 desss. (or 22,500 acres), a tract of land large enough to provide a living for 150 families. The first settlers, consisting of 26 families, were conducted to the Zerigul valley in the fall of 1809 by Chief Mayor Brittner of Grossliebental. The following spring, Commissioner von Rosenkampf conducted another 69 families, with their leader Michael Kuhn, from their winter quarters in the colonies in the environs of Odessa, to the place of settlement. Of the 95 families, 56 had emigrated fro Alsace and the Palatinate, 33 were from Baden, 4 from Würtemberg, and 2 from Prussian Poland; in all about 450 souls. Since a large number of the earliest settlers were from the Palatinate, the settlement was named after the town of Rohrbach, in the district of Bergzabern. It seems that the first homesteaders were put up in stone dwellings. Each family also received the necessary livestock, farm equipment, and seed grain, for which the families were granted an advance loan of 100,490 rubles. The cash assets of the immigrants amounted to some 40,000 rubles. In 1813 another 27 families arrived from Prussian Poland, and 4 more families from Württemberg. In 1816, according to the earliest available census, the village of Rohrbach had 130 families, with a population of 602 souls (312 men and 287 women). From 1817 - 19 another 22 families, of which 16 were from Baden, were settled. In the next two decades 31 families moved away to other colonies. Despite this loss, however, the population of Rohrbach was 683 in 1838, and rose to 1,178 in 1847. For the 217 families, the available area of Crownland per family was about 40 dess., or 100 acres. Further on in the book it states: "Out of partiality to the village of Rohrbach (Pfalz) from which they had emigrated, the two colonists Peter Schmidt and Peter Nuss, who arrived at this place among the first, gave the colony the name of Rohrbach." (As Peter Nuss is known to have immigrated from Rohrbach/Bergzabern, Pfalz, the Rohrbach referred to was in the Palatinate, not in Baden. Translator's note.)" Departures: In `1818, ten families went to Grusinia, in 1823, 11 families moved to Odessa and to other colonies............ (This could explain why Johann on his immigration papers says he was from Odessa. However, he could just have put that because it was a larger area).

Johannes married Eva Margaretha Riedel on 9 Feb 1794 in Erlenbach bei Kandel, Pfalz. Eva (daughter of Philipp Jakob Riedel and Anna Margaretha Billo) was born in 1775 in Erlenbach bei Kandel, Pfalz; died in 1814 in Rohrbach, Odessa, Ukrayina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
