Bill, W/K are shorthand for the abstracts of the registrations made when immigrants passed through Vienna. To the best of my knowledge the original records are stored in the Hofkammer archives in Vienna.

He would have been registering with his wife (Barbara??) and at least one child (Peter) who was 2 years old at that time. The town of origin (Malberg, in Bitburg County) is listed as well, but I would eventually like to see the actual records myself to verify this home town and identify any possible relocations before he left for Vienna. I have found a good deal of information on the town of Malberg, but I have not had success locating Johann (born 1731) there. Church records stored in Trier apparently start in 1744. Also, I do not know what the source below (Qu: W/K 5658) means - can anyone help me with that? Here is the cited record from Johannisfeld Family Book; Familie Schwiegerath stammt aus Malberg, Kr. Bitburg,Luxemburg; Johann Schwiegerrath ist am 19.04.1766 in Wien registiert. (Qu: W/K 56/58) The Schwiegerath family came from Malberg, BitburgCounty, Luxembourg. Johann Schwiegerathregistered in Vienna on April 19, 1766 (source: W/K 56/58) Thanks very much!Bill Schwiegeraht ------------------------------- 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 ------------------------------- 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
