Pillaging The Pilsen Archives, Part Two
The first thing I did once I got home from my grandparents' was to pull up my Neuhaus Lihls file and see just how much of the work I'd already done. Needless to say, I was rather proud of myself when it turned out I had Johann, his parents Simon Lihl and Johanna Lorenz, and Simon's parents Johann Lihl and Barbara Heidler. I'm in the process of pulling up exact dates, as well as trying to decipher hometowns in the parish records, but I currently have the line back to 1763 and am hoping to take it back beyond that. That's assuming I can continue to read the Old German script, however, and considering it's take a considerable amount of help and practise so far, we'll see how it goes.
