My family immigrated to St. Louis in the late 1800's.  Their names were "Rinderer".  Cities they may have been from are St. Galen and Neuchatel.  I'm more inclined to believe they were in the German-Swiss part of the country though because my mother's first language was German. 

I have tons more names and information and can be reached atrgkilian@email.phoenix.edu,rgjq@myway.com, orrobertkilian@yahoo.com.
