This last book is very recent and contains informations about Rosport and the depending villages. There is also information about the families of the Rosport region. Check following site: www.mpk.lu. They have no online shop but you can send a mail. 2) The civil records are accessible through LDS family history centers, near you. Marc Lecuit Grand Duché de Luxembourg marc.lecuit@perceval.lu
