Civil registration/zivilstandsregister

Hello Jan,
there is only one Meensen in Germany and I happen to know it well. My my
sister-in-law lives there. It is a very small village with not more than a
few hundred people.
This village is near (8km away from )Hann. (Hannoversch) M�nden, in the
very south of the "former Kingdom of Hannover" where the rivers Fulda and
Werra join to form the Weser River. Meesen is now under Scheden as far as
a postal address is needed, a slightly bigger village 4km away. I am not
certain whether this helps.
    Oda.

Dear Oda,
Thank you very much. It helps me to understand something about how difficult
it is going to be to find a Hannoverian ancestor without knowing his place of
birth.
Regards,
Jan Perry (Adelaide)
