Date posted: Monday, November 1, 1999: I am trying to find some Frieberger's that could be related to my mother. She was born in the 1920's to Gotlieb FRIEBERGER and my grandmother. My mother's father died when she was around three years old. She was born in Akron, Ohio. She said my grandmother had sent packages to Russia she thought. I would like to find anyone related to my mother. I want to do this for my mom because she would like to know who her relatives are on he father's side. My grandfather had fought in World War I and came home and all I know is that he had gotten run over by a train and when they were amputating his legs and arms he died on the operating table. Please if anyone can help me send me an e-mail. Thank You Virgil Staab Jr.
