There was a maker Heinrich Carl Röhr in Essen (*ca. 1808, oo1830).

An other Ernst Röhr in Dahme (ca. 1877) is to late.
I think it is Heinrich Carl Röhr in Essen.

Two makers with the same last name in different countries at the same time? Very interesting! What source of the
information about Vilno?
