[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Griebenhof/Gribenhof (was Liessapol????)

[joepessarra]

Eduardo,

There is a Gasthaus in Germany called Griebenhof.  Maybe there is a
connection with your family.  Here is the site.
http://www.griebenhof.de/  Grieben in German means crackling or tallow
refuse.  It is a dairy farm, so maybe the name has something to do with
that.

There are only 15 listings of Weicht in Germany phone directory at
http://www.dastelefonbuch.de  Maybe contact with some of these people would
be of help to you.

There is a Grabenhof and Grobenhof in Germany.  There is a Grabenhof
(Grabowo) in Poland.

Good luck.

Joe in Texas

I have the same kind of problem.
On the ship manifest from 1897 of my Kommers family in Brazil, nationality 
is German and last residence is "Gribenhof". I can't find a Russian, 
Ukrainian, Polish or German "Griebenhof". Does anyone know what place this 
might be?
Ludwig Kommers and Auguste Weicht got married and had their children in 
Zhytomir/Faustindorf area. The birth records of the children are from 1860' 
to 1879. There are more three children born after this period but I have 
never found them. So, I suppose they moved to this "lost" Gribenhof, where 
the three last children were born.

Anyone saw Griebenhof sometime?

Thanks,
Eduardo Kommers
