Derek, Here's some info from one of the members on the McKeesport Message Board: As far as I know along time ago the Dingeldein family had a feud,The TRUE Dingeldeins kept the German spelling & the others used the dine ending.Alot of the family lived in the Bryn Mawr part of White Oak.The Ackerbergs were also related.My Grandfather Philip built a house on Wesley St. in the Grandview area,I was born in that house! He was a Mck.fireman.Still have a cousin George Dingeldein living on Monongahela Ave. in Amherst Terrace. His sister is Bette Ford,who used to be a bullfighter & now an actress.Their dad was Charlie Dingeldein who was killed by a Daily News truck YEARS ago in front of Johnnie Who's on Walnut St.The only young ones left are my sons,one in Irwin & one in VA.
