Life
Rustenus Heer received his training in St. Blasien, was admitted to profession in 1733 and ordained a priest in 1738 . In 1740 he was appointed librarian. He worked together with Father Marquard Herrgott on the publication of historical works. She also visited Johann Daniel Schöpflin in the provost's office in Bad Krozingen . After the death of Provost Herrgott, Heer left Krozingen and took over the parish of Nöggenschwiel , where he recovered well and continued to work on the publication of the Taphographia . With Johann Baptist Haas he got an excellent engraver and a press as well as a messenger who daily transferred the manuscripts between the printing works in the monastery of St. Blasien and Nöggenschwiel. He wrote to the historian Andreas Lamey that everything was going well and asked for beet seeds to be sown. Under Abbot Martin Gerbert he managed to publish the work of the Taphographia austriaca . The hard-working first works were lost in the monastery fire of 1768. He turned down a call as Imperial-Royal Councilor and court historian and was appointed head nurse to Bonndorf in 1766 . To decree that was Taphographia reissued. This was the high point that he was still able to experience. Soon after this honorable delivery, Father Rusten was overtaken by death, around the middle of 1769, in the prime of man's age of 54.
