[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Missing (?) records in Odessa3 - Volhynia

Another big surprise in the information I got yesterday was there were not just 2 siblings of my g-grandfather's who stayed behind, but possibly 4? 

 

Two more previously unknown siblings came to light; Paul Menke and (writing hard to read) "Tilda" maybe short for Mathilde, also apparently born in the Alexandria, Volhynia area. Tilda and Marie written as "oldest" in the family, so if Marie was 1881, Johann Manke 1879, then Tilda ~ 1877? 

 

I wonder why so many names don't appear in the database? 

 

Gustav Menke born 1884 Alexandria or Mariendorf, Volhynia

And now this Paul and "Tilda", no records.

 

Would the likely reason be missing or illegible pages when Odessa3 was compiled? Or is it possible they show in the films if born prior to 1886 but just didn't get entered into the database? 

 

   Thanks,
