We're Changing to a NEW DDFA Website!

This website is being retired. This one is too old to get an SSL Security Certificate and people are being told that it is an unsafe website. That is not true. Our site is SAFE. But it is old and cannot be updated. So we are moving to a new website:
http://www.dreisbach-dresbach.org

We will continue to support this site as we transfer the contents.  Please visit our new website and provide feedback about it.  Thanks!

 

The Dreisbach/Dresbach Family Association

DDFA Tombstones Project
The tombstones of Jacob Dreisbach (1750-1804)
 and his wife Magdalena Dreisbach (1757-1836) badly need replacing. 
There are major errors on Jacob's stone, Magdalena's is broken in half.

The DDFA is asking for your help to defray the cost.

Please make contribution checks payable to: 
Dreisbach Family and note it's for the Tombstone Project
Send to: Sharon Driscoll
45144 Musselwhite Road
Callahan, Florida   32011

THANK YOU!

UPDATE ON THE TOMBSTONES

Jacob's new tombstone is now in place at the cemetery of the Dreisbach Church in Lewisburg, PA.
It is paid for. Thank you!

Magdalena's new tombstone is underway. The plans are to dedicate the stone in June 2023 at the time of DDFA Reunion. 
About $1200 remains to be paid on this stone.
Any contributions will be gratefully received.


 
We have a new DDFA genealogy database!

Heinrich Imhof, a distant cousin of many American Dreisbachs, has produced a much-needed and well received book: Hoffnung auf ein besseres Leben.  The full title in English is: "Hoping for a Better Life; Emigration from Wittgenstein to America in the 18th and 19th Centuries". Written and published by Heinrich Imhof, Bad Berleburg, 2018. To read more about this book - CLICK HERE!
