Annette, 
            Thanks for your reply. When you furnish them the name, date of birth, Marriage date, and parish and the person works for the church in the parish
involved. 35 Euro or $55.00 US dollars is an exhorborante rate,sorry. Either they're dyslectic or just wear a mask............................R.L. Schindall

  Subject: Re: [OL] Question on Charges For FamilyInformation....................


  My 2 cents is... I looked at a German church record from 1690 to 1850 
  (at the family history center) and it had so many entries, difficult to 
  decipher words, and so many people with the same first names and 
  surnames that it easily took me 20+ hours to review it all.  And the 
  review was not easy on the back or eyes - I would think 35 Euro/hr is 
  appropriate.   The lucky info received over this mailing list is really 
  from kind hearted people with handy resources!

After contacting that person via e-mail I was told that the charges to look into the church records for the names, birth dates ,marriage dates, deaths and parents names would cost 35 Euro per hour and an average estimate of 350 Euro to complete. I see daily e-mails going back and forth on family information searches, are these being supplied at this exhorborante rate? Please advise.
