I cannot be sure about Flosia and Lalesch but they might be Klonia and Salesch which are also villages in the area. Regards Bill Remus

I am looking for some information on Michael Guderian and his father Christian Guderian. Some of the information I have found shows that both were born in Dombrowke and others say Schubin. I know that Michael spent some time in the military, but I don't know if his father did as well. Both immigrated with their families to America about 1856. I would be interested in knowing more about the military time and anything else anyone might have or can point me to the direction of regarding these two people. I do know that Michael served his military time at Neu Schottland bei Schubin. Thanks! Sharon Baldwin --------------------------------- Need Mail bonding? Go to the Yahoo!
