Hello !
My name is Stéphanie Boucher, I'm french and I'm looking for my romanian grandmother.
I have looked in many archives both in Romania and France but I have very little information.
What I'm sure of :
Name: Matilda or (any variation) Schmidt, born 22/01/1910 in Talmaciu
Her mother was named Sara Schmidt and was deceased in 1939 (that's what is mentionned in the marriage certificate I found in Paris) no mention of a father
She was German speaking and left Romania around 1937-38 for Paris where she has followed a diplomatic familly as a nanny.
What I'm not sure of coming from my memory:
her mother died around of after WWI.
she had an older brother that might have died in a car accident before she left Romania.
I did not find her in the birth register of Talmaciu, but is there other register ?
So I do not know a lot, and looking for any type of support yo may proide.
Thank you,
Stéphanie
