Hello Listers, The above names are ancestors. J Gottfried HUBNER was born Sep 2 1802 in Gross- Tinz Formerly in Prussia. (The town is now Tiniec Legnickie (spelling??) Poland.) He married Anna Rosina SIEGERT born Dec 21 1808. place of birth also possibly Gross-Tinz. They emigrated to South Australia on the LEONTINE in 1848. One of their daughters Anna Christiane HUBNER married my grandfather Ernest Albert MANN I'm hoping to find out more about the HUBNER/SIEGERT lines but have come to a grinding halt at that point. I've tried to find photos of the town - any age - but without success. I did find the town on maps, and Google Earth, but would very much like to see what the town looks like - even today. I'm planning a trip to the town at some point in the near future. Does anyone have anything that could help me with, birth certificates, town history, pictures etc? I'd surely appreciate it. Many thanks Lynne PS The "Sophia Mann' name you see attached to my email address is the nom de plume I use in the hopes of having less personal info about me floating around on the web. --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?

Hi Lynne- I found these images using google's image search: http://www.vogel-soya.de/bilder/Gross_Tinz.jpg http://www.vogel-soya.de/bilder/Grosstinz_Pfarrhaus.jpg http://www.vogel-soya.de/bilder/Gross_Tinz_2.jpg Also, I believe the correct present day spelling is "Tyniec Legnicki." -Terissa On 5/8/07, Sophia Mann <adelaide1203@yahoo.com> wrote: > > Hello Listers, > The above names are ancestors.
