I found multiple online articles containing varying ages for the age of conscription ranging from 15-21. I've since learned that for the time period I'm researching, the 1850s, the age was 20. I've ordered the book that was cited as the source for this information. Once I receive it, I'll post further information. Nicole Kenjura Christina <sen.chlubic@gmail.com> wrote: *1.

Julia, I found only Svata (near Beroun). Polosovica, Volisna, Dobiova seems to be misspelled. The nearest spellings could be Polesovice for Polosovica Dubova for Dobiova Olesna for Volisna There are two Olesnas in Bohemia (near Pelhrimov and Rokycany) and one in Slovakia, near Cadca. Please take in mind this is only a speculation. Also 3 misspellings seems to be curious. Jiri Mlejnek > We are trying to find where these town/area names are.

Dear Lars, Thank you for the information. I am looking for the names Matschl, Albrecht, Fidler, Kurz, Hundsnusher (Hundsnurscher), and Mraz. I know that relatives by these names resided in the villages of Pleschen ( Malonin) and Frauethal (Frantoly). Thank you for any information you can find. Sincerely Mary Scott **************Ideas to please picky eaters. Watch video on AOL Living.

Hi Mary, Malonin (german Pleschen) was in the district Frantoly (german Frauenthal). Frantoly pertains (maybe first later) to the district Prachatice, but the Prachensky Kraj in the Berni Rula finish even something southerly from Prachatice. For example Nebahovy (see any map) was still in the Prachensky Kraj, but this Kraj end after this Nebahovy. And Frantoly is southeasterly from Nebahovy. I have the Berni Rula Prachensky Kraj part I and II. What for names search you in Malonin? Maybe I can look in the district Nebahovy or in other districts by the "Prachensky Kraj border" for your names. good luck Lars ----- Original Message ----- From: <TexanRose7@aol.com> To: <czech@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, February 29, 2008 4:59 AM Subject: Re: [CZ] Following up on Berni Rula index entries > > In a message dated 2/27/2008 3:37:22 PM Eastern Standard Time, > rosie@bodien.org writes: > > Berni Rula > > > I am interested in accessing information from the Berni Rula but am > unclear > about the district.
