Mary Harrell    Can someone please help read where Simon Szczesniak was born? I can’t seem to locate the town on a map. See Section 5 on the WWI Draft Registration. Thank you so much.

<whew> More solid teamwork! After much ado about something, and after having cracked another Europe (Mecklenburg) case today for a fellow teammate, Kelly, who Skyped me & provided me the rootsweb link below for Poland towns, here are the best phonetic hypotheses (yes, plural) of Karl-Michael Sala !

Isn’t this great fun?[these 3 are ALL in the region aka] Wojewodztwo Zachodniopomorskie PolandKedzierzin city

Kedzierzyn-Kozle city

Kedzierzynka city

Karl-Michael Sala A 2nd witness for one of these places, rapidly provided to me by Kelly, on our Skype group page, is at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~polwgw/towns.html

Robin Foster   I love the teamwork that brought down this brickwall! Nice GERMANY/PRUSSIA!

• You and Janell Larson Vasquez like this.   Karl-Michael Sala Now, that’s what I’m talkin’ ’bout{;>)

Karl-Michael Sala Good work, Debbie Furgat Dunn! Contrary to the patron’s (oh, that’s you) line of thought, changing the letter R to an S, the Matzling as Maeteslinck IS a VERY close phonetic match! I’m buying it, at least to get the records for THAT place. The Z in that word is pronounced like an s after the t & the -ing is pronounced precisely like -inck! Because we want an Austria location, THIS is phonetically as close as it gets, my friend! “You gotta Like the teamwork, baby”{;>) I believe we might just about have this one in the bag! You get to now ascertain what church & what the parish would be for the Matzling location in an Austrian (Österreich) gazetteer! I would like your post, but for some reason, it is not accepting any comments or likes, so I’ll Like it here.

  Debbie Furgat Dunn Wooo hooo! Thanks this is a huge leap forward for me.
