Peter,
This sounds fine. I assumed you were a descendant of Dorothea Hein but I guess I was wrong. It sounds like you will only compare those two who would actually half-2nd cousins once removed.
I looked into the coverage 23andMe provides which is about 933K SNPs (markers) which is very good. I have seen that estimates of 300K-600K SNPs is enough to confer identities close to one individual so among this large pile of data to be generated hopefully something will show up.

Thank you very much Karl.
Your correction is noted and your advice is
very much appreciated.
As it stands, I think my family can secure a
DNA sample from someone
who is Daubler's
known Great-Grand-daughter by his first wife (though
she is very much older and time is of the
essence).
Also, a sample
can likely be secured from someone who is hopefully
August Daubler's Great-Grandson via
Wilhelmine Hein and her daughter
Dorothea
Hein.
Hence, the two
samples would be obtained from two people who's
relationship is second cousins, *IF* August
Daubler is Dorothea Hein's
Father.

You just hope some of those critical
