[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Seeking Records from the Evangelical Augsburg Consistory Council

[Peter]

My gosh Paul, you are amazing.

As you said, that is mixed news... ultimately bad in that the record
I'm seeking is not available. But still, I salute you for coming up
with the source for those records so quickly.

Many, many thanks to you... and to everyone on this listserve who have
been so remarkably helpful.
