I am especially interested in which entries are in Czech in the Bohemia book. I understand the Moravia book is in German>.
Thanks to Susan Boyer - another fantastic volunteer - I have the Bohemia book which has been of great help to me.
I must tell Vera, and everyone else though, that the contents give no idea of the language of the chapters. Each chapter [and there are about 253 chapters - two hundred and fifty three!] just has as a title - the *place name*.
Finally there is a statistical chapter in Czech at the end p. 729-733
The best approach would be to make an Excel file and then post the results on our website:
Four columns: [unless you have any better suggestions?]
Title - author - brief comment re contents - language.
This is a big task and I am prepared to volunteer to start the ball rolling by indexing the first 26 places letter A-B:
Adlerkosteletz > Bukowitz Who will join me?
Any translation project would be massive and I cannot see how this can realistically be done by us. I hope I am wrong. Perhaps a few key places should be targeted first?
