Hello Mark,

My great-great grandfather, Julius Emil Arthur Reiss, was born in
Ratibor, Haatsch Kreis, Upper Silesia on 28 July 1861. I believe Ratibor
is now in Poland, and is called Raciborz.
Haatsch, county Ratibor, belonged to the co-called Hultschiner
Laendchen (country of Hultschin?). After WWI it came to Czechoslovakia.
Between 1939-1945 the Hultschiner Laendchen was occupied by Germany
and again belonged to the county Ratibor. After WWII it came again to
Czechoslovakia. The Czech name now is Hat'. It is located close to
the Polish border about 7 km north-east of the city of Hultschin
(Hlucin).
[..] I would be very
interested in tracing the Reiss or Fischbaugh lines, but hardly know
where to begin. Can anybody give me any ideas? I think a good place to
start might be to try and get a copy of the marriage license for Edward
and Pauline.
I only know the Evangelical parish (Ratibor) Haatsch belonged to,
unfortunately not the Catholic parish. Hope, someone else can jump in.
Kind regards
Angelika Beck
