Hi Dave, There isn’t a family book for Botosch, so I was wondering about the church records themselves - whether Botosch kept its own over some period of time, or whether all births were recorded in a parish elsewhere. A good suggestion I got from Rudolf Hüpfl to try the Setschan records unfortunately yields no information - Josef Jerhoff isn’t in the birth index for any time around 1879, the year he was born.

Is there actually a Botosch KB, or would birth records from there have been included in some other town’s records? > > Cheers, > Linda > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BANAT-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
