It is not too common to find notes about emigration in registries from Central Bohemia. But I happened to run into several families from Drahenice, Příbram district, which have a small note written in the birth records of their children. And you can find a list of those children in this blog post.

I have looked at baptism records from a lot various different parishes and some have information added like when the person was married, when or if they immigrated and others have nothing. I guess it depends on how diligent the priest was.
ReplyDeleteHI Michael, yes, exactly - it depends only on the priest. If he was diligent, he was recording every marriage or death also to the birth registry. And such priests are treasure!
