    1. Re: [GERMAN-BOHEMIAN] Old Moravian Town/City Names
    2. Anettka, Thank you very much for the www.ihff.at site. I only had a partial town name due to illegible handwriting and the site gave me all possibilities. I found the town I was looking for. The name was Rostitz in Moravia. Thanks again, Ray Klapka -----Original Message----- From: Anettka@aol.com To: GERMAN-BOHEMIAN-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Fri, 25 Nov 2005 09:41:04 EST Subject: [GERMAN-BOHEMIAN] Old Moravian Town/City Names In a message dated 11/25/2005 Ray writes: Does anyone know of a Web site that lists old Moravian town and city names > and cross references them to the new Czech Rep. names? Ray, One of the best sites I've found for taking an old place name in the Czech/Moravian area and finding modern possibilities is this: http://www.ihff.at/indexstarte.htm . When you get to that page, click on "gazetteer and picture cards". Then in text, click on "listing". Where you see a 'window', put in the place name, or at least a few letters of it. You will get the modern name as well as other information. Anettka ==== GERMAN-BOHEMIAN Mailing List ==== Would you like to see messages that were posted before you joined the list?
