In December of 2003 my husband and I traveled to Germany to visit our daughter and her family. While there, we made a visit to Oberselters, Nassau, Germany. My great-great-grandfather, Georg Burbach, traveled from Oberselters to Villmar and married Catharina Caspari in 1848. We were very lucky to find the family name still present in the cemetery in Oberselters. Usually one only retains a grave, in Germany, for 20 to 30 years.
