Various spellings are
Rodacker, Rothacher, & Rottacker
So far as I can find is as follows. If anyone has any further information on these lines please e-mail or fax me with the information. Most of this information was found, on film, in the Beresina Family Book, LDS film 1766557, frame 123.
Johann ROTHACKER was born about 1799, in Wurtemburg, Germany. He died July 4, 1831, Beresina. He married Luisa Lang who died before 1834.
Children:

Johann Freidrich ROTHACKER born August 16, 1823, Beresina, Russia. He married Margaratha LANGE born about 1823, Borodino, Russia.
Matthaus ROTHACKER born February 1, 1828, Beresina, Bessarabia, Russia. He married February 21, 1852, in Beresina, Bessarabia, Rosina LUKAS, born December 1, 1832, Beresina, Bessarabia. Matthaus died about June 1882 in Russia(?).
Jakob ROTHACKER born October 5, 1830, Beresina, Russia. He married February 14, 1854 in Beresina, Eva HAGEL, born about 1834, Beresina, Russia.
The line I am following is the following:
Matthaus ROTHACKER born February 1, 1828, Beresina, Bessarabia, Russia. He married February 21, 1852, in Beresina, Bessarabia, Rosina LUKAS, born December 1, 1832, Beresina, Bessarabia (daughter of Adam LUKAS and Margaretha PRESSMAN). Matthaus died about June 1882 in Russia(?).

It seems the Matthaus Rothacker family moved about 1864 as no more records found in Beresina, Bessarabia Family Book. The following children are from the book DESCENDANTS OF MATTHIAS ROTTACKER. The names listed below are the ones used in North America.
