[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Ger-Poland-Volhynia] EWZ Marriage Data Query - Ruck

[Gary Warner]

To all,

Then lucky me.  The only family member of mine caught up in EWZ was the 
daughter of my great aunt, and her children.   That EWZ58 record shows 
full data on her deceased husband and also her parents, even to the 
detail of noting that her mother was in the United States.

The date and place of marriage was listed on the Stammblatt, but usually not the spouse if deceased.  It is possible to find children from that marriage than the deceased Mother or Father is probably listed.  Cross reference with Grandmother or Grandfather for accuracy if listed.  For that matter, the first marriage may not be listed at all if the living spouse re-married.  Older children of the first marriage may or may not be listed under the second marriage, depending on their age.  Adult children have their own card.  Comparing the age of child to the date of marriage can be a give-a-way.  A few months would be difficult to tell, ten years would indicate a previous marriage.  Children that were listed at time of record and then died after the record date were simply "lined out".
