    1. [GERMAN-BOHEMIAN] Wolfersdorf Records
    2. Krin Warr
    3. In 2005, I somehow managed to find a lady to provide some information for me from some archives. I’m not entirely sure what I asked about to start with, but was hoping someone could help me understand that so I can get started (again) in my understanding and research of records in Wolfersdorf Bohemia. I don’t recall how I came across the contact information, but here is where I believe I looked to request information from: http://www.genealogienetz.de/reg/SUD/kb/wolfersdorf.html She kindly emailed me back with this information and I was never able to contact/connect with her again for more details of what she provided me: Dear Mrs. Warr, last week I was in the Cech.Republic, searching the Dates of your family Keller/Blumtritt. I found: Keller Johann Nepomuk, born 12. June 1832 his sister Keller Johanna, born 26. April 1834 und the other two brotheres Keller Vinzenz, born 10. May 1837 and Keller Hieronimus, born 16. December 1840 in Wolfersdorf No. 196. Father: Keller Anton, Glasschneider in Wolfersdorf No. 196 Mother: Blumtritt Theresia, born in Neudörfel No. 35. Grandfather: Keller Ignaz, Glasschneider in Meistersdorf No. 90 married Fritsch Johanna, born in Meistersdorf No. 40. Blumtritt Josef, Hausierer in Neudörfel No. 35 married Alber Rosalia, born in Neudörfel No.38. I had no more time for searching the dates of marriage, but I hope I could help you. My english is not very good, but I hope you can understand. Edeltraud Günther My ancestor is Hieronimus Keller. The place, Wolfersdorf Bohemia was listed in a family bible, I was given that information from a relative in Canada and that is how I came to start searching the Wolfersdorf area. So far I know that the three brothers ended up in Glasgow, Scotland. Vincent and Hieronimus married there, John married in Trieste, Italy. With Hieronimus and his family coming to America eventually. The families are much easier to track and put together once they are in Scotland as glass engravers. I happened to obtain a marriage certificate from Trieste also, but the information above providing information on the grandparents is the farthest back I have been able to get so far. Also, are there records/lists that exist for people who left Bohemia traveling to places like Scotland? Are there routes they would most likely take to travel to Scotland? If anyone can provided me with some information to get started again, where to look or write for more information, or anything at all I would truly appreciate it. K. Warr
