Will take your original post with me to the FHC as it has all those nice dates on it and look in the Augustdorf OPRs for his entry. There are 2 films permanently held there, they were ordered maybe 10y ago. All the records are handwritten in the order they were reported to the church, so finding a date isn't too hard. That's how Herman's parents were found, the birthdate in those translated documents for him was exactly the same as in the Augustdorf records. No further births were found to those parents which indicated he WAS the youngest in the family. You'll be the first to know.... MegG near Tulsa
