[Alysson Minks]

Hi Alysson:

Unfortunately it is not that easy yet. We know that the family lived in Dresden in 1905-1908, and they lived in a place called Lichtenberg just before emigrating in 1914. But we don't know where they lived in 1901 when Elisabeth was born. We also don't know where Max and Clara were married, and where they both were born (which might be the place they lived in in 1901 before they moved to Dresden in 1905). Max and Clara's birth records, their marriage record, and Elisabeth's birth record don't show up in a search on Ancestry.com, because by far not all records have been digitised and put online - we are lucky that the records from Dresden are online, so we were able to find the birth records for two later children. Once we know where the family lived in 1901, you can then write to the city archive for that place to ask for the birth record.

So let me ask again:

1) Do you have Elisabeth's Brazilian marriage record? What does it say about her birthplace?
2) Do you have Elisabeth's Brazilian death record? What does it say about her birthplace?
3) Do you have Max's Brazilian death record? What does it say about his birthplace?
4) Do you have Clara's Brazilian death record? What does it say about her birthplace?

In Brazilian documents, they do not specify the address, they only mention how it was of German origin.....

That's why I can't go any further here in Brazil, I'll only be able to go further by actually searching German documents
