[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Researching the FOERSTER family

[Krampetz at aol.com]

I had excellent success by emailing the EZA  _http://ezab.de/_ 
(http://ezab.de/) 
(THE  EVANGELICAL  CENTRAL  ARCHIVE  IN  BERLIN   they obtained many of 
               the Lutheran church books after  WWII)
With less information than you have,  they replied in 24 hours  (!!!)
with 8 siblings  (4 unknown) & a mariage,  When I  replied that was
a second marriage,  and repeated the name of the first wife,
in another 3 days they found another sibling, and the death of the  first
wife.  
 It took about a week to obtain all their church records   (births, 
marriages & death)  for a great head-start.  No guarantee  you'll be as successful, 
 but it's via email 
 
Also,  did you sift thru the 287 "Foerster's" in the SGGEE Data  base?
There are 16 "August's"  (first or middle name)
 3   "Gottfried's"         "
17  "Gottlieb's"                 "
27 "Anna's" & 1 "Emma"    "

Dear  Fellow Researchers:

I am requesting help with the FOERSTER   family.  The  family comprises the 
father August (dob 1851) ,  mother Rosalie Kuihn (dob 4  Apr 1862), two 
brothers Gottfried (dob  10 May 1880) and Gottlieb (17 March  1886) and two 
sisters Emma (4  Sept 1889) and Anna (29 June  1891).   The 1910 census  
indicates 
they were Rus-German.  I was  fortunate enough to find  the ship's record 
for 
their entry into the  US.  Gottfried's  last residence is shown as 
JUOTINSKE, 
Gottlieb's is  JUSTYNOWKE,  PULIN, and the records for August, Rosalie, 
Emma 
and Anna indicated   they traveled together from PULIN.

At this point I hit a brick wall but  hope I can trace  them further back 
and maybe even into  Germany.  I would really  appreciate any help anyone 
can 
shed on  my FOERSTER  branch.  I wish to  thank you in advance for your  
help.

Respectfully,
Lloyd Michael   McLarty
