Both the Harpersdorf Church Records and letters in the S. H. L. are evidence for data regarding Rosina Heebner.

The address on the former letter reads: “‘Dises Briflein zu kommen An meinen Liben Vater Christoph Hibnern zu selbst Higener eréffnung—”’

(This letter is sent to my dear father, Christopher Heebner, to be opened by himself.)

The signature of the missive of May 18, 1766, reads thus: “Rosina Scharffenbergerin zu kommen an Hans Christoph Hiibnern meinen) Bruder”

(Rosina Scharffenberger, addressed to Hans Christopher Heebner, my brother.)
