Thanks Cathy,

My gr-grandmother, Anna Potje, was born in Molidorf in 1870 or 1873. She
died of starvation in Molidorf in 1946. I knew the family was originally
from Alsace-Lorraine, but had no idea of a village or town.

According to the Heimatbuch Molidorf im Banat around 1946 there were a
number of other Potjes in Molidorf.

Haus Nr.212 Potje Michael 1889
Potje Maria 1890
Potje Franz 1921

Haus Nr. 229 Potje Peter 1876

Haus Nr. 241 Potje Johann 1941
Potje Katharina geb. Bolnik 1920
Potje 1939

Now does someone have the missing blanks on where the Potjes were between
Gottlob in the late 1700s and Molidorf in the late 1800s?

This list is great!
