Line 41:
''Joderhuebel''—German for "Yoder Hill"—is a natural fortress on the [[Emme River]] in the Swiss [[Canton of Berne]]. German researcher Karl Joder of [[Ludwigshafen am Rhein]] believes that the Yoder family was established in the region surrounding the hill before recorded history. The oldest known documentation of the Yoder family is a 1260 record of the birth of a Peter Joder in Joderhuebel. Thus, the first Yoders emerged between the start of Theodorus's reign near 381 and 1260 when the earliest records document the existence of a Yoder.
In about 1385, a Heini Joder moved to [[Steffisburg, Switzerland]], which is in the southern part of the [[Emmental]]. Yoders lived in Steffisburg for approximately eleven generations before they joined the politically subversive [[Anabaptists]].
