In 1815/16 54 people lived in the village. In 1832 Rödel belonged to the mayor's office in Leichlingen . The place, categorized as a village according to the statistics and topography of the administrative district of Düsseldorf , had eleven houses, a mill or factory and nine agricultural buildings at that time. At that time 63 residents lived in the place, three of them Catholic and 60 Protestant denominations. The mill location on the St. Heribert Bach, located directly on the Wupper, became a separate living space under the name Fähr.
