Looking for that elusive German place??? Now there is a wonderful site at this link that can help you resolve those place name troubles in a hurry.
Meyers Orts und Verkehrs Lexikon has been put on line and not only in the digitized format, but in a easy to read format that searches for places and even has wild card capabilities. It is also able to connect you to a map of your location. Try it, you will not "like" it, you will LOVE it!
Sonja, Thanks to your post this morning, I was able to locate two strong possibilities for an ancestor's birthplace ! I am so excited about MEYERSGAZ's potential that I wrote about it. A big fan of your work (-:
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear your success story. It's so much nicer than hauling around those heavy volumes! And so convenient!
DeleteI have two websites - I wish we could fine-tune a mapping site like this for Hungary .
