Hello, Wondering if any of you are LDS film specialists out there, that could help me with an LDS film search I'm stuck on. . . 1). In 2001 I found a link to a film of interest from a church in Berlin, film #2034661 for the name STREESE, but now I cannot find the same film # in the catalog nor can I pull up the same name I found before.(I have the printout so I'm using the correct #. .) I have found an ancestral file for the husband of this person, Dorothee Streese, but not the film I listed here. There is a Henriette Streese listed, but this is a different person, different church. Do these films ever "disappear" from the records, or has the system/labels changed at all? Or could this have been a misprint from that time?? Or is there a way to find a batch # for this church?? There are some films for that church, which leads me to my next question, 2) . .the church is Sankt Matthaus(w/ umlaut) and there are some "FHL INTL" films such as 70569, etc., but is there a way to search anything with these international #, since there are only 5 numbers in the designation as opposed to the 7 numbers in a standard film designation. In other words, I want to do a search for names like I can do with putting in a batch number but is there a way to find a batch number for these films?? 3) When searching batches, for example, another church in that series, a Sankt Nikolai, there are thousands of records, in alphabetical order, and since my name is way at the end of the alphabet, how do I advance the screens to get there without individually scrolling the "next" on every page?? It's very tedious, and at the time, the computer wouldn't even let me go past the B;s in the alphabet. . Or, does anyone know of any LDS discussion sites where I could ask these questions?? Thanks for any leads for information, Pam G. in CA

Can someone direct me to a Gazetteer for the Niedersashsen, Braunschweig area - the town of Holzminden. I am searching for Lutheran churches to find records. Laura

I just checked out the website for Three Holy Women parish. St Rita's opened in 1933 for Italian's. Holy Rosary Church opened in 1885 for no particular ethnic group, but eventually became primarily Irish. It is located at 2011 N Oakland. So, this may be my church!.

I think there is a St. Rita's currently in that area. I wonder when that started.

Would anyone have access to a German Gazetteer around 1862? I am looking for LUTHERAN churches in the BRAUNSCHWEIG, HOLZMINDEN, GERMANY area – To locate a marriage record in 1862 Laura [email protected]

Kathy, I will be going to a library that has the Milwaukee journal through 1987 fairly soon. Bob is checking some dates from Forest Home for me, and when I have them I plan to make a library trip. I only go when I have a days' worth of stuff to check, as it is a private library to which I can only get a one-day pass from time to time. If no one has been able to check for a obit for Merle before I go, I will be happy to check it for you.

As for Malliet religious denomination I could not really say. I know some were Nazarene, Baptist, Catholic & Lutheran but could not say with this family as nobody knows them that I am in contact with. Wish I could have been of more help.

Bob, I guess I stated it inaccurately. I received help from you but not DIRECTLY from the Cemeteries or DIRECTLY from the churches themselves. I have wasted many SASE & sometimes small amounts of money--with no responses received-via that route. I know of many people who have had excellent results -unfortunately I have not.

My ancestors lived for many years at Astor & Hamilton from the 1860's on. I am looking for the Catholic Church they may have attended in the later years. They originally attended St John's Cathedral Parish until local neighborhood churches opened. I know that St Hedwig's (now part of the Three Holy Women church group) opened in the 1880's at Brady and Humboldt, but that was built primarily for Polish Catholics, and my ancestors were Irish, so they probably did not attend there. Where might they have gone to Church in the area? Perhaps one of the other "Holy Women" Churches? Dave
