(Not knowing German there is probably information written that I cannot determine.) Is there a way to look up the name of my great-great grandfather to see when he got married, or how old he was when my great-grandfather was born? Perhaps, also, a way to look up a name could help track moves from one parish to an adjoining parish.

Thank you so much for the information on ...Blanka, <br />Thank you so much for the information on your blog! My mother and I have been researching our Bohemian ancestors on the websites for the Pilsen and Litomerice Archives (we don't speak German, but have found hundreds of birth, marriage, and death records and are working on translating them). And we are going to the Czech Republic to do genealogy in October (I am so excited, I have never been outside the USA before). <br /><br />My parents have been to the Pilsen Archive before and last time they were there they saw people looking at large envelopes and boxes of papers and photographs. The only records we have ever seen are the birth, marriage, and death registry books. Are there other kinds of records in the archive? Someone told me I should look on the archive websites to find a list of fond/funds which would list different kinds of records in the archives, but I haven't been able to find any lists for these two archives that show any other types of records. <br /><br />Since we know we can view the births, marriages, and deaths online, we really want to focus on records that aren't available on the internet when we are in the Czech Republic in person, so I really hope you can direct me where to find what other records are available. (Also, are there any other places to go, other than the archives, where we might find family records?)<br /><br />Thanks so much for your time!<br />Stephanie Bradshaw* Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13890568602531813685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867672851903497494.post-25827864295215957612013-05-28T03:05:58.296-07:002013-05-28T03:05:58.296-07:00Your information is very helpful.

Most are at the end of the book, although some books contain only indexes. Also, be aware that since parishes cover more than one town the book may be set up in "chapters". You will see records for one town for the dates listed, then the next town for those dates, and so on. So be sure to look at the top of the page you are viewing to see which town in the parish the records apply to. Some books have a page in front that lists the towns in the parish and what order they appear in the book. Finally, I was unable to print images from the site, but was able to save them using my snipping tool on my computer then save them as jpeg files.Janet Zavoralnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867672851903497494.post-63591214431927809972012-06-25T10:40:21.071-07:002012-06-25T10:40:21.071-07:00No, it's not needed to use the diacritics - bo...No, it's not needed to use the diacritics - both Nyrsko and Nýrsko give the same result.Blanka L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01084093699011379588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-867672851903497494.post-85790967375987838002012-06-25T10:38:06.158-07:002012-06-25T10:38:06.158-07:00Thanks for writing the tutorial!
