Hi elizabethgeissler,

Do all your family (both sides) come from Leipzig in Germany?
I am only knowledgeable on UK and some USA genealogy - not sure about Germany!! Sorry.
Here are some German genealogy Sites:
Ahnenforschung.Net - Das deutsche genealogische Webverzeichnis The German genealogy web index.
Ahnen und Wappen Genealogy & heraldry.
Database Search Utility Towns/villages east of Oder/Neisse Rivers located in the former German provinces of Pommerania, West and East Prussia, Silesia, Brandenburg, Posen.
Finding a German Place of Origin - Suggestions
Find your Roots in Germany - Links for Researchers and Travellers - Project by Research and Travel, Dr. Grams in cooperation with German National Tourist Office and the German Information Center.
FOKO - Die Aktion Forscherkontakte der DAGV - Researchers contact database.
Let us know how you get on, :)
all the best,
Dave

hi

I think there are some German IGI fiches at our local library i can go have a look (when things slow down again) if you can give me a name, and date........not sure what the fiches cover or what years.

Good look with the other wedsites listed.
