2. | Kathatina Dittenber (1.Katharina1) was born in 1879 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia; died on 3 Oct 1924 in Baroda, Berrien, Michigan, USA. Other Events:
- Birth: Russia
- Race: White
- Name: Cathrine Dinges
- Name: Katharina Dittenbir
- Name: Katherine Dinges
- Reference Number: 12981
- Birth: Abt 1879, Russia

- Residence: 1920, Lake City, Berrien, Michigan, USA; Age: 40; Marital Status: Married; Relation to Head of House: Wife
Notes:
Katharine's death certificate (per Sandra Wunsh) lists parents as John Dittenbir and Barbara Johns (probably Barbara Johannes)
Heinrich Andreas Reitz, Katharina Dittenbir and children appear on the Kukkus Reitz Surname Chart prepared by Dr, Igor Pleve. It would be assumed that the children were all born in Kukkus, however American records leave no doubt that all the children were born in the USA. Also Katherine Dittenbir lists her immigration to the USA in 1898. It would seem that the parents communicated with the church in Kukkus after immigrating and their childrens births were then entered into the Kukkus church records, where they were found many years later by Dr. Pleve.

Notes:
Johann George Reitz appears in the Kukkus church records. Apparently he and his siblings were added there after the parents left Kukkus in 1898. This would explain why Dr. Pleve shows the entire family in Kukkus, as he build his chart, in part, from the church records!
In the American records, the name George J. Reitz seems to be consistantly used.
Birth:
This appears to be a typo for 1/1/1904
Birth:
perhaps the family list is not very legible.
Family/Spouse: Lydia Unknown. Lydia was born about 1906 in Russia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
