Following is a partial list of descent Hubert Zirbes & Maria Elisabetha Neis--who was a sister to my great-grandmother Margaretha Neis Bold. I seek any possible descnet/connection to this Lemken family. Curiosity: Elizabeth Zirbes Lemken was born in "Michigan" (lake or state?) aboard ship when family was moving to Minnesota (1867) Henry LEMKEN resident of Kansas City, married Elizabeth Zirbes, born 3 March 1867. daughter of Hubert Zirbes and Maria Elisabetha Neis. The Neis and Zirbes families lived in Spring Hill, Stearns Co. at least until c. 1890. I seek all descendants of this line since Maria Elisabetha is a sister to my great-grandmother, Anna Margaretha Neis Bold of Cold Spring. Henry and Elizabeth Lemken had the following known children: Edward, William, Helen, Anna, Clara and Francis. I have Neis, Bold and Zirbes information to dechange with Lemken descendants.
