Julia,

glad you found our message board . I had a look at your website, you seem to have done quite a lot of research. Have you been at the Kiev and Zhitomir archives on your own or did you hire someone?

The KITZMANN family on that family list from 1869 is Harry Kitzmann's family. He may be interested to obtain this information. You can try to get in touch with him by clicking on the letter icon next to his name. Send him a message, he is able to read and write Russian. However, I can't guaranty that his email address will still work. If he doesn't answer, let me know and I'll try to help you.

As far as I can see (on online databases), there where at least three Ludwig KITZMANN families within the area and timeframe you're interested in. There may have been more...

Kitzmann, Ludwig & KNECHT, Susanna
marriage 1872 in the Lublin area --> source: SGGEE Lublin records
birth of 2 children (1878, 1883) in Volhynia, Ostrog area --> source: SGGEE St. Petersburg files

Probably NOT your family as date of marriage and area do not fit.

KITZMANN, Ludwig & RASCHKE (or RESCHKE), Johanna
marriage 1866 in Zhitomir Parish
birth of 5 children (1867, 1868, 1872, 1875, 1879) in Romaniv (Zhitomir) area
--> sources: SGGEE St. Petersburg files

Probably NOT your family as date of marriage does not fit.

KITZMANN, Johann Ludwig & NEUMANN, Anna Susanne
Birth of 3 children found in Witoldowo (Chodecz Gmina), Wloclawek, Kujawsko-Pomorskie, (now Poland): August 1858, Justine 1859, Mathias 1867. As their mother was born in 1833, this is the family from your Zhitomir archives family list.

To connect to this family you will have to proof that Julia-Karolina KITZMANN (*1863/1864) was a sister of August, Justine and Mathias. In this case, she would have been born in Chodecz Parish (then Congress Poland), not in Volhynia.

I have some questions: How are you related to Julia-Karolina KITZMANN? What is your source for her assumed birth year?

And, as for your website, I am not able to see any photo. Is the website server off line?
