The Trebon online archive is so beautiful. Yes, I need the matriky, but having the maps and gazetteer and all of that local background information online is SO helpful to understand how it all fits together. I love how you can sign in and then print out a page if you need to really stare at it for a bit. I love how high quality the scans are. It's incredibly user friendly!
ReplyDeleteGood to have found this website. I'm from Brazil and I have researched a lot of Bohemian families through the Acta.Publica and the Family Search websites. Now I am trying to find where the parish records from Lomnice nad Popelkou are avaiable in. As I have seen, they are not avaiable yet. Am I right? Can you help me in this? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou are unfortunately right - Lomnice nad Popelkou is in Semily district which is administered by the archives in Zamrsk. And this district is not yet available online there. Hopefully next year.
DeleteNot yet? =). I saw that there are some updates in the Zamrsk archive website, but I still can't understand if there is something avaiable for on line research. There are references about .zip files, but I haven't found any of them. Thanks again.

ReplyDeleteDear Blanka,
ReplyDeletewould you help me to find the Matriky, register for Volfirov? I would like to find my ggggg-grandfather Joseph Svoboda, was born about 1700. In which Archive should I search? Thank you for this excelennt homepage! greetings Eszter from Hungary
Hello Eszter, Volfirov belongs under State Regional Archives in Třeboň, so you should check their website - prior to 1712 it should belong under Dačice parish.
DeleteFrom what I have seen, the parish registers of Semily are available on the "Family Search" site.

But I think they still have not provided all the records, have they?
I'm still looking for the records of Lomnice nad Popelkou. Records of Nová Ves nad Popelkou are online, but not the Lomnitz records.
I hit a dead end with ancestry and Fam Search sites
ReplyDeleteFound and took a chance on Trebon and Plzen archive sites and found some good ancestors. Thanks for the insight!!
Need some help reading script, I found myself hoping for neat handwriters!
I am searching for Jarmila Churlova from Pardubice. She would be my third cousin who I met when she visited my grandmother in the US.
ReplyDeleteI misspelled the last name, it should be Cuhlova.
DeleteAny idea when the Moravska Trebova census records will be digitized and put online? Apparently the Litoměřice archives began the digitization process but I wish there was a way of knowing how long that will take. I am very anxious to see those records!
ReplyDeleteI am looking for information on Simon and Maria Chmoust Kouba in early 1800s. Marlene, 5/9/2019
