Johannisfeld im Banat
|
||
The AVBF (Working Group for the Publication of Banat Family Books) with authors Helga and Anton Hornung, has again succeeded in completing a well-researched family book for the Catholic parish Johannisfeld with the filial parishes of Iwanda and Serbian Sanktmartin. The family book covers the period from 1806 to 1988. The Church registers of the Johannisfeld parish, data from the Banater Post, private information and data from family books that have already been published served as the basis for this complete work. The family book comprises 1,640 pages, in two volumes, A5 format, hardcover, thread stitching binding. The print run is limited, so orders are processed in the order in which they are received. All pre-orders have been taken into account. When the family books are created by our association, in which all members work on a voluntary basis, there is always only one thought: we do not want 8-12 generations of Banat Swabians to slip into a void in history and we also do not want our children and grandchildren to search desperately for their ancestors only to have to give up. Family book of the Catholic parish Johannisfeld in the Banat and its filial parishes of Iwanda and Serbian Sanktmartin. 1806-1988 by Helga and Anton Hornung. Published by the Association for Publication of Banat Family Books (AVBF) St. Georgen, 2020. The price is €80.00 plus shipping costs.

Wiesenhaid Famlienbuch
|
||
The following announcement comes from Richard Jäger, the author: I am happy to inform you that the Familienbuch Wiesenhaid 1771-2016 is about to be published. The publication of the family book is the result of nearly twenty years of research work. On 800 pages you will find answers to many questions about the origins of the inhabitants, the establishment of the Wiesenhaider community from immigration in 1770, settlement in 1771 to dispersal of the residents in 1990. Primary sources were the Roman Catholic parish Church books for baptism, marriage, and burials in which the Wiesenhaider were recorded by the priests of our community. Families have been reconstructed. The result is the names and data of nearly 2,500 families, with a total of 11,000 people included. The clear presentation makes it easy for each individual to find his own ancestors, and to create a family tree or pedigree. I have invested a great deal of passion in researching the origins of the Wiesenhaider colonists. After years of painstaking research (in the archives in Vienna, Budapest, Temeschburg, Metz) I was able to identify almost 90% of the exact places of origin and to further document these origins with the corresponding birth and marriage data from the places of origin. The ship lists of the Wiesenhaider who emigrated to America and Canada from 1900-1930 have been incorporated into the book. I also recorded the dissolution of the Wiesenhaider community after World War II. As far as can be determined, the date of resettlement and the destination of each Wiesenhaider family is shown. As a long-time publisher of the Wiesenhaider "Banater Extrapost" and from the announcements in the "Banater Post”, I have incorporated the death dates of the Wiesenhaider, as well as weddings and births of the younger generation. The book is prefaced by a foreword by HOG Chairman Robert Feil, a brief overview of the history Wiesenhaid, a village plan of 1771 and 1855, as well as some photos of Wiesenhaid and some old family photos. The price of the book is 65€, plus 18€ shipping costs to North America. I ask you for a binding payment for the book. I ask you to pay your full order amount of 83€ to the following account details: Account DE06 6705 0505 0033 0219 92, BIC MANSDE66XXX, Account Owner: Richard Jäger The number of copies printed was limited to the initial prepaid subscribers, plus a few additional copies. So, there are a very limited number of books available. NB:

The FB Bakowa consists of a 2 volume set with 2,150 pages covering 7,150 families and the usual registers (Name register, locality register and registers of marriages). In addition, there is a detailed time table and a very interesting history of the place and a parish history (from previously unpublished sources from the National Archives of Budapest and from the Archives of the Diocese of Temeswar). For many settlers, the places of origin are also included and - as far as can be explored - data from the different church books from Bohemia, Moravia, Slovakia, Luxembourg, the Moselle region and Lorraine. NB: The author's preface was also translated into English, as well as the explanation on the use of the family book and the whole list of used abbreviations. The concordance of the places is provided in three languages: German, Hungarian and Romanian. The Bakowa Familienbuch also includes a table with the many Pastors (about 79) who have worked there - their life data was supplemented as far as possible by documents from the diocesan archives. The godparents and the marriages are also given, as are most sources, and in many cases, also the profession. Orders for the Family Book Bakowa must be placed directly with the author.

Sammelwerk
|
|
A Brief Description During these sponsored migrations, the colonists arrived in Vienna to register with the government. Happily, the Austrian bureaucrats kept detailed records of these early settlers. The records include lists of the settlers, including when they arrived in Vienna to register (the Vienna Lists), and records of reimbursements to local residents who housed some settlers until their new homes were ready (Schlafkreuzerrechnungen). These records or lists included the settler's name, and often, also the number of family members traveling with him, age, occupation, and the area or town they were from. The Vienna Lists and other settler registration lists were organized into the "Quellen zur Deutschen Siedlungsgeschichte in Südosteuropa" [Sources of German Settlement History in Southeast Europe] by Wilhelm, Franz und Josef Kallbrunner, published in 1935. More recently, Stefan Stader combined this information with 208 other sources of information on the colonists, such as Heimatbücher and Familienbücher for the villages, and local histories; this is called the "Sammelwerk Donauschwäbischer Kolonisten". Regretably, Stefan Stader died in 2003 before he could complete the task of organizing all of the colonist information. Currently, there are 6 volumes, ending at Sch- surnames. Volume 7 is being completed by the AKdFF and is expected to be available by the end of 2011. It is an excellent source for locating where in Europe one's ancestors emigrated from and when they arrived in Hungary. The Stader information and the Vienna Lists are most helpful if you can trace your family line back to an ancestor in the mid-1700's, since that is the period when there was the greatest influx of colonists, and the period when colonists registered with the authorities in Vienna. These books complete the work started by the late Stefan Stader. For more information on the previous volumes, please refer to this page Volume VIII (T-Wa) Volume IX (We-Z) Cost: Book orders can be emailed to the AKdFF in Germany. Once your order is received, they will email back with an invoice number and the additional shipping costs. All Book orders must be pre-paid. Please reference the invoice number with your payment. Shipment from Germany for one/two books: 16 €/37 € to the USA, 16 €/38 € to Canada, 5 €/6 € in Germany and 14 €/16 € for the rest of Europe Postal Address: Office of Arbeitskreis donauschwaebischer Familienforscher eV (AKdFF) Goldmuehlestr. 30, 71065 Sindelfingen, Germany

Triebswetter Homeland (Translated)
By Dr. Anton Peter Petri & Dr. Josef Wolf |
|
Triebswetter, A Village in the Banat is an English translation of the 1983 original work. The book was originally published in Germany in 1983 by The Association of Former Residents of Triebswetter. It covers the history of Triebswetter from the time of its founding in 1772 up through the Baragan deportation in the 1950s. It has many tables, name lists of people, the original colonists and where they came from, 115 pictures and two maps in the back. When writing this book the authors had access to the parish history book, the Historia parochiae, and other parish archived material so it is more detailed than many of the homeland books. Since Triebswetter was primarily settled by French colonists, the situation of the French in the Banat is covered quite well, and it includes the “French Movement” that took place during and after World War II. This book should be of particular interest to those who are descendents of Triebswetter, as well as those who are interested in the history of any of the Banat villages, particularly the French villages in the Banat. All inquiries should be sent directly to Ray Borschowa. To place your order, send payment to: |
