[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Help finding a record or two

[paul.rakow at cantab.net]

 Hello Keith,

      Most of these Fiedler / Lutz children are recorded in the
 St Petersburg microfilms / scans - have you looked at them yet.
 Actually seeing the birth records for yourself might tell you
 something extra (godparents might be a clue to other relatives,
 and it might be good to be sure that the index-maker read the place
 names correctly).

     I can add at least one detail,
 The marriage of Christoph Fiedler and Elisabeth Lutz was
 on 20 June 1877, recorded in Zhitomir parish. Unfortunately,
 we only have very brief marriage records, it looks like the
 full marriage details weren't sent to St Petersburg.
