Hi Beth,

ShtetlSeeker at http://www.jewishgen.org/Communities/LocTown.asp finds these
towns close in spelling/pronunciation, and close to Lublin, but not all in
Poland.

Dubeczno populated place 51°26' N 23°26' E  E M U G Poland  39.5 miles ENE
of Lublin 51°15' N 22°34' E

Dubechno populated place 51°55' N 24°03' E  E M U G Belarus  78.5 miles NE
of Lublin 51°15' N 22°34' E 
 
Dubechno, Dubechnoye, Dubeczno populated place 51°33' N 24°22' E  E M U G
Ukraine  80.3 miles ENE of Lublin 51°15' N 22°34' E

Poland phone directory at http://www.ksiazka-telefoniczna.com/ shows the
following:

Dubeczno has no listings for Friedrich, Lieske, Glor and Zellmer.

Lublin has 2 listings for Friedrich, no listings for Lieske, Glor, and
Zellmer.

Not a lot of help.  But, there are others in this group who can give you
some better help, I am sure.

Good luck.

In a written account of my grandmother's early years and immigration, she
often referred to the city of Dubechna (spelled phoenetically).  I believe
it might be around/near Lublin, but I don't know for sure.  

I am researching the names Friedrich (Gustav), Lieske, Glor and Zellmer.
The first two surnames are from my mother's side and the second two are from
my father's side.  Oddly enough, records that I have all seem to indicate
that they came from the same general area around Lublin.  I don't have any
evidence that they knew each other, but after immigration to the USA (and
some to Alberta, CA) they eventually ended up in northeastern Wisconsin.  

Any information that all of you - the experts - might have or if you can
point me in any new directions - would truly be appreciated.
