[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Need help finding a Liske/Lieske birth record

[Nelson Itterman]

Hello Maxine:
If Heinrich fled to West Germany after WW 2 you might try looking in the EWZ
films under the name Liske. There is a Heinrich Liske with the birth date
shown as 1893? In the Odessa War Records. The ? mark shows they are not sure
of the date. The film to order is # 1807100. All the Liske's would be shown
on that film. You have nothing to lose.
Nelson

Maxine,

I assume that you are in contact with Kay (Schoenwald) Shariff who is a 
3rd cousin once removed to Heinrich Lieske?   She does not seem to have 
much different information than you do on the Lieske line, but it might be
good to compare notes.
