The
DVHH will remember Anton
Bedö-Zollner
Anton, one of the
first contributors to
the DVHH website,
granted permission
to translate and
republish any of his
village reports from
"The End of the German
Banat Villages" on the
DVHH websites.
These
reports allowed
researchers to discover
more about their
ancestral villages;
providing a little
history,
general-to-specific
facts and finds,
pertinent news and
information about the
last Germans residing in
the villages. When I first
published the Mercydorf
website, there was
little to publish; I
was ecstatic to read
Brad's translation of
Anton's Mercydorf
report; which is an
example of his findings,
translated into English:

Anton's contributions to
the DVHH will always be
remembered.
