It was about ten years ago that I was looking at church records for St. Lawrence the Martyr Cath. Church in Waldrach and I remember seeing the name MOLITOR quite a lot. It turns out that they did not seem to fit in with my family, but I still remember that after all this time. Waldrach is a small town in the Landkreis (County) of Trier as well as in the Archbishopric (Diocese) of Trier, and is only a few kilometers straight east. You can probably order the microfilm if you have a Mormon Church Family History Center nearby. One of my ancestral names includes Trierweiler, and there is a man in Brazil with that name that I've corresponded with. If you'd like, I'll send you his e-mail address privately. Are there any other names from that area that you're looking at? Regards, Joe
