Hi List: I found the following information and need some help. I am researching the surnames; Paa & WILD. The older men were in the 7th Landwehr (militia national guard) in Eger and later were transferred to Rumburg. Individual soliders in Cavalry Regiment No. 2 in Dobrzan.

Hello, Towns Eger (in Czech is called Cheb) and Rumburg (its Czech name is Rumburk) are situated in the Czech Republic, today. In both of the towns lived mostly German-speaking population, until 1945. I dont know about the origin and circumstences of the list mentioned by you, therefore is hard to say, whether the numbers means houses where the persons came from, or anything else. All the best, Martin Pytr, CZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Forshay" <billforshay@yahoo.com> To: <czech@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, November 05, 2007 2:39 AM Subject: Re: [CZ] Towns of Eger & Rumburg Hi List: I found the following information and need some help.
