Meaning, back in 1990, some of the cousins of the descendents of Gustav Peter Leibbrandt and Katherine Gienger (who had 12 children) said, "Hey, let's get all the cousins together for a party." A couple of the cousins took charge and got the word out and we met and ate and reminisced and shared the little genealogical information we had. At the end they asked who wanted to be in charge of the next get together and a couple other cousins said they would take a turn and that is how it has happened. We don't have an official leader or spokesperson. We don't have an organized time--whatever fits into the hosts schedule. We have had a total of four reunions. The most recent was held in St. Francis, Kansas where this branch of the Leibbrandts homesteaded. Ben Leibbrandt, who inherited his grandfather Gienger's farm, and Donna Leibbrandt Zimbelman, hosted the reunion. It was also a nintieth birthday celebration of Mabel Tiff Leibbrandt Borden, the last surviving member of the "cousins" parents' generation. She is still living and, in fact, my sisters and I are taking my mother (an "ex" in law) to visit her the middle of March. To my knowledge, we didn't decide who was going to host the next reuion but I think it is my father's turn (Kenneth Duane Leibbrandt.) However, he lives in the Philippines so it would naturally fall to me and my siblings. I know it won't happen this year because I have two daughters getting married and my first grandchild being born this summer but I'll visit with my brothers and sisters and see if we want to organize a reunion for the summer of 2006. I'll keep you posted. Sincerely, Cindy. Hans Leibbrandt wrote: Dear Cindy Williams-Leibbrandt, with copy to Stephen Leibbrandt SA.

I was successful and found the generations that appeared missing. The only Leibbrandt at St. Francis that I know of is Ben Leibbrandt. Ben and his family came to a family reunion in McCook during 2002. I did an internet search for Ben's e-mail address and did not find one. The contact information that I have for Ben is: Ben Leibbrandt Rural route 1 Saint Francis, KS 67756-9801 Telephone: (785)332-2732 I do not know if Ben is organizing the St. Francis Leibbrandt Reunion. Because Ben has lived in the community and taught school there, I would expect that he would know who the contact is. Sorry that I can not provide more information to help Cindy Williams-Leibbrandt. Yes, my correct e-mail address is vdleibbr@ansci.wisc.edu. I do not know where the other address came from except that it is for the server I access to collect mail, BUT it is NOT the address to reach me. I am glad that you now have the correct address. Hans, your work to manage the Leibbrandt genealogy site is great service to the family. My children look at the site because of their interest in our "roots". Thank you for your dedication and effort to maintain the site. Sincerely, Vern Leibbrandt Madison, WI, USA
