[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Acquiring birth and marriage certificates

[shoning at q.com]

I obtained in 2007 the death certificate of my grandmother's sister by writing and requesting it from the "Standesamt Schöningen"; she died in Schöningen.  I suggest you request the desired certificate from city administration of Marburg.  From its web site, I see that you will need to send them 10 Euros and prove to them that you are related to the deceased, and you can submit your request by e-mail.

Here are the website links:

Main web site:
 http://www.marburg.de/de/72266

If cannot read in German, translate the website with the Google translator.

Online request for the death certificate:
 http://www.marburg.de/sixcms/detail.php?template=urkunden_ste_bestellen

The central E-Mail-Address is:
 stadtverwaltung at marburg-stadt.de

You may need to correspond with Marburg in German, but you can try English first.

The postal address:
 Magistrat der Universitätsstadt Marburg
 Rathaus
 Markt 1
 35037 Marburg

If anyone can answer this, I, too would like to know.  I would like a death certificate and obit for my grandmother's sister who died in Marburg, but have come up empty in all attempts to get either.
