Moin! My ancestor Foke Rüstmann emigrated from Esens back in the 1870s to New York City, and I am very interested in History and Genealogy. We have an on-going debate with my relatives that I was hoping you could help settle. We are wondering what the name "Rüstmann" means in Plattdeutsch. My uncle believes it means "arms maker" or "armor maker". However, I know the name was adopted by our ancestor Foke Janssen Rustmann (B. 1775, D. 1858) around 1811 when Napoleon abolished the patronymic naming system common to Ostfriesland. During that time, I'm not aware of much armor or gun producing industry in the area. Given that, I suspect the name is derived from the word for “scaffolding” or another kind of wood framework, which would imply the name means "scaffold maker" or something similar. Do you know any information about the history of the name? -Blake -- Blake Rustmann brustmann(a)gmail.com Cell: (972) 567-6679
