Hmmm....Dirbin, Germany. I'll have to check out where that is located on mapquest.
I sure wish you had GGmother Rosine Berger's birthdate or GGfather Johann Zschau's birthdate. I assume you haven't actually tried to find them in Germany since you don't have any dates or names of siblings?
Just trying to figure out where you are at with it.

What you see is what I have. The Granddaughter Sent a letter to my dad in the 40's after the bombings. I will be getting a scanner so I can put my information on the web. Need all the help I can get. The best clue is Great Grandmother Klara(clara)'s sister Anna died in dirbin, germany or leipzig or Anna's grandchikd Sifrid Hesse. Average age for having children is 21 years so Klara was born 1873 less 21= 1852 around that date frame.

Pat,
I couldn't find Dirbin but did find Derben:
Prefix: Derben
Derben GKZ : 15 3 17 040 County : | | +---- Genthin {GNT} RegBez : | +------- Magdeburg Land : +--------- Sachsen-Anhalt ZIP : 39317 Popul : 1012 Locat : 52d25m N 11d58m E Maps : TK25 3537 Grieben TK50 L3536 Tangermünde Euro Mf34
Derben is located in Sachsen-Anhalt as is Wollnau which is where I believe my Gottlieb Zschau is from. Have you written to Germany at all?
