We were asked to locate documents related to residents of the former German colony Gluckstal in Bessarabia.
It is not an easy task to do, as those are spread across two (or three) different countries with different access rules.
Here is the Google Map. The Red Mark is the actual location of Gluckstal , which, according to Wikipedia, “is currently under the administration of the breakaway government of the Transnistrian Moldovan Republic”.
Records for this place are kept in 6 different repositories spread over 300km: Kherson State Archive, Odessa State Archive, Moldova State Archive, Tiraspol Transdnistria State Archive, and two offices of vital records – in Grigoriopol and in Kishinev.
We travel to those places to get vital records for our client. We could do this for you as well.
