There has been some discussion of a website devoted to Adlergebirge folk on the Sudeten List.   They have given\ several URLs for photos and other information. THE FOLLOWING IS FOR ANY AREA OF SUDETENLAND. Just substitute the place / area name for other parts of Sudetenland. If you are interested in the area: Open Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer if you prefer. 1) go to translate.google.com 2) Leave a page window with place to insert German text open 3) Set the translation buttons for German to English 4) Reduce the window to an icon on the toolbar at the bottom of your screen Open Firefox or IE again -- a NEW WINDOW Now do your search for: 1) Adlergebirge 2) Adlergebirge Verreine 3) A place name or county or district in Adlergebirge 4) Place, County or District with E.v. If you find a site you like LOOK AT TOP OF SCREEN for any indication there is an ENGLISH version of the site and click on that.   All pages MAY NOT be in English but key ones will. 1)  Look on site directory on left side of screen and click on any word like foto, photo      Explore 2) Historie or other words to open other pages. 3) When you find a page in German that is history you might want highlight all the      text by dragging your cursor over it while holding the left button down. 4)  Right click anywhere on the hightlighted text (not on a photo or other image) 5.  Choose COPY on the drop down menu that appears 6.  Click on the ICON on the toolbar at the bottom of your screen that will open the      Google translate page. 7.  Place cursor in the little window for text to translate and left click. 8.   Click on paste on the drop down menu 9.   The German text should appear.   IF not try repeat of steps 3-8 10.  Click on TRANSLATE button and the translated text willl appear on the right of the page. NOTE:   Although the window for text is small it will take up to several pages of text you have copied from a website even though it does not all appear in the window. 11. Highlight the English text on the translate page, paste it to awordprocessor to print and / or save it.       Good idea to also have the blank word processor open on the toolbar at the bottom of the       screen before you start this operation.   You can continue to add to it if you find more text you       want, BUT SAVE it with the first paste and then save it with each addition or risk losing the whole thing.

Perhaps you should file the names of the bulldozed villages in the Königgrätz (Hradec Kralove) area.
