[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Surname Poborski

[Richard Stein]

Maureen and George,
Thank you for responding to my query regarding the name Poborski.  A variety 
of surnames was attributed to Gertrude in several Polish and German vital 
records of her husband and children.  One of the names was Poborski and I 
theorized that one of the others was a German equivalent.  However, none of 
them had the Steuer root or looked like Zollner.

Dick
