Research Notes:
We are following Johannes Rohrer and Elizabeth Snavely of Lampeter Twp, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania [1]. Some researchers have named this couple as the parents of Johannes. However, following Richard Warren Davis, we suspect that Henrich Rohrer was the father of Johannes.
1667 Maria Catharina, daughter of Johann Friderich Sheigler and wife Juliana was baptized on October 27 at Kircheim unter Teck, Stuttgart, Württemberg. [2] [3] Some researchers report her as the spouse of Hans Michael Rohrer of Markirch. However, Stuttgart is 200 kilometers from Markirch, Alsace, so this is not close geographically.
It is possible that two sons of Hans Michael Rohrer and Katherina Schwagler, both named Johannes, settled in Lampeter Twp, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania before 1750. Records of deaths, marriages, and baptisms of grand-children, related to the other children of Hans Michael Rohrer and Katherina Schwagler, have been found in church records at Sainte Marie aux Mines, haut-Rhin, Alsace, France, which is near Strasburg. Other than their baptismal records, no subsequent records have been found for either son named Johannes in Alsace, France, suggesting that those two sons moved away to another place. The church records link this Rohrer family to Fortelbach, which became a center for several Mennonite refugees from Bern and Zurich, Switzerland on their way to America [4]. One of them was a witness at the baptism of a nephew on July 11, 1734 at Markirch, Alsace, France. Perhaps the two sons named Johannes Rohrer eventually settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
Albert L Rohrer summarized information about two men named Johannes Rohrer who settled in Lampeter Twp, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania at about the same time. [5] [6] [7] [8] Descriptions from documents in Lancaster County Pennsylvania, church records of Sainte Marie aux Mines, oral traditions, and a family bible all suggest that these two men were plausibly children of Michael Rohrer and Catherina Schwagler.
1. John Rohrer, who owned several tracts of land adjacent to the Big Spring in Lampeter Township, died 1771 [with heirs Jacob, John, Martin and Christian Rohrer, Jacob and Anna Houser, Francis and Elizabeth Smith, John and Mary Bachman, Peter and Susanna Miller]. [shown here as Johannes Rohrer, baptized in 1696]
2. John Rohrer, of Connestogoe Creek, Lampeter Township, Pa., died 1772. [shown here as Johannes Rohrer, baptized in 1701]
3. John Rohrer, of Hempfield Township, died intestate, 1778. [not followed here]
… It is said that No. 2 John Rohrer came from Switzerland and Strasburg Alsace. He may be the one listed in "Strassburger's Pioneers," who arrive in Philadelphia, August 24, 1728, by ship Mortonhouse, and a clerk wrote his name on one list as Johannes Roer and on another as Johannes Roar. He married Elizabeth Snavely, and in his will written in "High Dutch", presented to Court June 17, 1772, and some time later
…
We now have the further information that John Rohrer [Number 1] was the son of Hans Michael Rohrer and Katherina Schwagler-in, whose marriage took place in Markirch, Alsace, on June 6, 1688, and John or Johannes was their fourth child, born on May 13, 1696. [we seek evidence for this conclusion]

The Musée protestant provides the following summary [88]:
At the beginning of the 18th century, the Amish communities once more had to face persecution and were expelled from their lands. This dispersion, however, renews their strength. They are well-known everywhere for their excellent farming.
The persecutions during the reign of Louis XIV
During the 17th century, numerous immigrants from Switzerland joined the Anabaptist communities scattered throughout Alsace since the 16th century. One of these newcomers was Jacob Amann, the founder of the Amish, a new dissident community. Thanks to their hard work and their farming abilities, the Amish community that settled in the valley of Sainte Marie aux Mines was highly successful. This aroused jealousy, and letters were written to the Court Chancellor, Voysin, warning him of the illegal settlement of Anabaptists in Alsace. The latter were not mentioned in the treaties of Münster and Osnabrück, signed in 1648, granting the Alsace Protestants a special status. Louis XIV decreed their expulsion from French territory. In September 1712, the Alsace Intendant ordered the bailiffs to have the expulsion of Anabaptists from French soil completed by the end of October. Because of such a hurried departure they were obliged to sell all their belongings at cut prices.The Prince of Birkenfeld, successor of the Ribeaupierre dynasty, regretted seeing his farmers go and issued them with highly laudatory letters of introduction that enabled them to find new possibilities of settling outside France, in the Principality of Montbéliard (Montpelgard), Lorraine, the County of Salm, the Val de Villé, the Duché des Deux Ponts.
These circumstances increased the strength of the Amish community, whereas the economy of the valley of Saintes Marie aux Mines was considerably weakened. After the death of Louis XIV in 1715, a few families discretely returned to Sainte Marie aux Mines to become lease managers of the lands they had once owned.
A measure of toleration under Louis XV
Under the reign of Louis XV Anabaptists were tolerated, but with some restrictions such as the prohibition of wedding ceremonies. This measure, however, was never fully enforced since they were protected by the princes, the notables and even members of the clergy who employed them on their estates.At this stage there were about twenty fellowships, meeting at the main farms of the Sundgau, at the tenanted farms of the Vosges valleys as well as numerous estates in the plains. In 1766, two brothers were bold enough to file a plea for exemption from taking the oath. The minister of Foreign affairs, the Duke de Choiseul, replied that they had better "let themselves be forgotten" and thus avoid the threat of expulsion. Such situations encouraged the Anabaptists to close themselves off from the rest of the world and live in secluded places.
Outstanding farmers
This is how Counsellor Kroeber, the administrator of the mines in Saintes Marie aux Mines who hoped for their return, described them to the administrative officer : "the Anabaptists are by nature very hard-working people who make considerable efforts to clear uncultivated land. They are especially efficient – and more so than the other inhabitants of Alsace – in the art of breeding cattle, as well as in cattle care and trade…"We owe them significant innovations in cattle breeding and other agricultural techniques. Some examples are the crossing of cattle from the Canton of Berne with local livestock to obtain the Montbéliarde breed, the technique of irrigation, the making of artificial meadows, and the practice of crop rotation which avoids the necessity of leaving fields lie fallow.
