Thank you so very much! I had found on Ancestry that Caroline Leibich and John Gimbi were the parents of Albert but there are several Alberts and just did not know if that was the correct couple. I just would have never looked for the last name of Gennty. Shows you how much the census takers can mess up the last names of people. Please tell me how you searched for them so I can find them in the 1860 census. I believe that John Gimbi the father was born in Germany. Want to find as much on them as possible. I am very grateful to you for this help.
