Good Afternoon Alvin,
Am sending you the URL and hyperlink for locating lots of places all over the
world. Click on Germany and then on the first two letters of the place you're
looking for. You will find two of your towns listed. Wehrsdorf and Bautzen
are on the same latitude and longitude (51N - 14E). There is no Sachen listed
but there is a Sachenbach listed (47N - 11E), not sure how far apart that is
from the other two. If you click on the towns it will give you lots of other
data and maps and even lead you to things that are on Google.com. Also if you
go to the Advanced Search in Google.com and type in Sachen Germany under the
Exact Phrase there are about 63 items that come up. Don't know if that means
that Sachen is an area similar to Saxony or not.
Hope this helps, Gretchen

Perhaps someone can help me locate the area in Germany that was the
birthplace of my
GGG Grandfather in the year 1793. The places mentioned are: Wehrsdorf,
Bautzen, Saxony, Germany. Also mentioned is Sachen. Just when I think that
I have the area located accurately, something comes along to contradict my
findings. Thank you!!
