The Beller family lived in an isolated area of the Vosges Mts. in the province of Alsace in France. The Beller home was about 30 miles from Strasbourg, with some of the closest villages being St. Die, Plaine, and Schirmeck. Because the Goat Mts. were the ones immediately surrounding it, their home was called the Geisloch, the German word meaning Goat Hole. . . . Roeschley, p. 5

Jacob Beller, who had a withered arm, was a weaver and a Mennonote minister . . . . Roeschley, p. 5
