[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] August Meyers (Maier) Przedecz

[Miles Ertman]

Unfortunately the years 1866-1875 are missing from the Przedecz  
records that the LDS filmed.  However, it appears that the Wloclawek  
archives do have births for these years according to this website:   
http://baza.archiwa.gov.pl/sezam/pradziad.php?

If you are interested in seeing the birth record of Wilhelmine Radis  
(Radues), it is on LDS film #2380034 (Amelin) along with the birth  
records of a few of her other siblings.  The death record of her  
father, August Radis is also there along with a marriage record for a  
Ludwig Majer (23) + Pauline Fuerst (16) that took place in 1888.  The  
marriage record states that Ludwig Majer was born near Przedecz but  
gives his parents as Gottlieb and Julianna nee Krueger.

I currently have the LDS film that contains the 1860 Zgierz marriage  
record of August Emile Ferdinand Meyer/Henriette Wilhelmine Schulz  
that Dick Stein found in the SGGEE pedigree database.   If you are  
interested in receiving a copy of this record,  let me know.
