Well, I would like to request that you do provide the lineage that you do have giving at least the names of the living and possibly the approximated or actual dates of the deceased... back to Catherine Rape Funderburk. If you want I can help you with the names, dates and places from Catherine Rape Funderburk and carry that back.
You are one of the persons on this list who I have not heard from prior to your introduction. In 1979, when I first began to contact Rape descendants with an all out effort I was able to learn more about the Funderburk desendants of Polly Rape Funderburk, the daughter of Gustavus Rape, as many lived close to the person who worked more closely with me in those years. I did see many pages of both books by Dr. Guy Funderburk and even had one telephone conversation with him at one time.

I have a very short list, as the only information I have so far, is what I
found in Guy B. Funderburk's books. Catherine Rape was my 4g-grandmother,
and I have her father as Johan Peter Rape. I am following these discussions
with great interest.

Dear Cousins,
As I am sure that all of you know the purpose of this e-mail list is for the
purpose of discussing our family history, or more precisely the Reeb family
who resided in the Countdom of Saarwerden in earlier times which is now the
westernmost portion of Bas-Rhin, France, aka Alsace-Bossue, or possibly more
commonly known to some in our group as "the Keskastel area." I would like
to request that all present subscribers please post an introduction to the
list and let all of us know something about your direct Reeb lineage.
I know that most if not all of you already know something about my own
lineage but just in case here is a brief summary of my lineage.
John V. Reeb (me)
William Augustus Rape (my father)
William Parks Rape (my grandfather)
John Augustus Rape (my great grandfather) Archibald Rape (my great-great
grandfather) John Rape (my great-great-great grandfather) Johann Peter
(Reeb) Rape (my 4 greats grandfather) Johann Peter (Reeb) Rape (my 5 greats
grandfather) Gustavus Reeb (my 6 greats grandfather) Johann Peter Reeb (my 7
greats grandfather) Johann Nicolaus Reeb (my 8 greats grandfather) Heinrich
Reeb (my 9 greats grandfather)
