Andrist's of Därstetten place of origin (note: or Daerstetten, a-umlaut may be converted in 'ae'). The families known from this place had rights of citizenship of both Därstetten and Oberwil. Although some moved to Därstetten from Oberwil they kept their rights of citizenship for a while. There is a lot more of research for Daerstetten families. This tree currently is of special interest, as we managed to get in contact with descendants in Argentina.
Seems the ancestors left their places of origins (Därstetten, Oberwil) for other places out of Simmental (Langenthal, Kirchberg, ..). The records got registered with Oberwil Church books.

SP RAMSOYER (RAMSEYER), Rosetta (Rosa) F 23 May 1869 1884 15 02 Aug 1955
Eggiwil, Switzerland Romang, Santa Fé, AG
REMARKS: Called "Carlos Roberto"
REMARKS: Aida wrote: He came to America about l880 [1879] and, at l9 or 20, married Rosetta Ramsoyer, who was l5, daughter of John (Johannes)
Ramsoyer (Ramseyer 1824-1909) and Elizabeth Wingeyer (1822-1889), in l884, all of Swiss citizenship. The personal facts about grandfather are scarce because he never
spoke of his family. We don't know why; he only said he had two sisters. His father was Emil Robert Andrist and his mother Anna Maria
Thomann.
Charles Robert Andrist was a blacksmith, at least he did that here in Romang. Grandmother was a homemaker and also worked as an honorary
teacher of embroidery for 30 years in the German School which was then located in this area. They had eight children, two boys and six
girls. I am the daughter of Elisa Barbara Andrist and Maximo George William Kaenel (originally von Kanel; in Immigration when my
paternal grandfather, Jacob, entered the country, they changed his last name).
REMARKS: Willy Andrist: A transcription of his Heimatschein (certificate of origin) says he had inherited rights of citizenship of both
Daerstetten and Oberwil im Simmental. This confirms our earlier assumption that Daerstetten Andrists were former Oberwil citizens which
obviously kept rights of citizenship of both towns.
