Response from the Bavarian Royal Archives
Thank you all for trying to help decode this postcard and help identify the soldier. I followed Basil's suggstion and contacted the Bavarian Royal Archives to determine whether any soldier in its records matched my guy. The response is attached. Disappointing, but I am grateful for the effort. Donald

Short translation "we won't do your research for you"

Hi
They are not able to do a research only with a name, they need to know his unit. To be honest that's no surprise for me. Did you wrote to the archives that he probably was in the "Königlich Bayerisches Chevaulegers-Regiment "König" Nr. 4"? Regards Svenja Geändert von Svenja (28.05.2020 um 16:51 Uhr) |

But stated so beautifully in German. |

I did not mention the unit. I suppose it doesn't hurt to write the archive back and cite the unit. I should have mentioned the unit initially. Thanks. |

Final Response from the Bavarian Royal Archives
I followed Svenja's advice and explicitly mentioned the unit Basil had identified in my follow-up inquiry to the Archive. The short, polite response is attached. I believe I have hit a brick wall on trying to figure out how Alois Polster is related to his Buffalo relatives. Thanks to all who tried to help me. Donald

Hi Donald,
this is unfortunate, but not a brick wall. You have the approximate Time and Place of Death for his mother, so it should be possible to identify her in either state or church records and go from there. |

Zitat:
Thanks, gki. My key mission was to find where the Forsters came from. Through another thema I learned they came from Weihern (Pfreimd). Before I learned that I thought these postcards from Alois Polster would be the key to my Forster origins. Now, having learned where the Forsters came from, the postcards are not as critical or important, though my curiosity is still peaked. Thanks for your encouragement. Donald |

Hello researchers,
my cousin from Oregon has also ancestors named Rauch, origin from Kallmünz and Oberhof: Georg Rauch, unmarried baker's apprentice from Kallmünz married later Anna Mühl from Oberhof. They emigrated to the USA in 1854. Has anyone more information on them ? |
