Neu-Pasua
A Short Homeland Book
By Mathias Huber
Reutlingen, Pentecost 1974

(The following is a translation of portions of the above publication.)

Foreword: 

     With the publication of the Homeland Book in 1956 the basic foundation of the history of our former home community was laid.  The Homeland Book was compiled by Dr. (Mrs.) Hudjetz-Löber.  It included the very exceptional Family Register that was authored by our former village pastor, Jakob Rometsch. 

     Following the publication and appearance of the Homeland Book further merit worthy contributions were assembled.  They enhance and expand the historical chronicle of our home community. 

     The contributions with regard to the statistical information on the inhabitants of Neu-Pasua at the time of our flight on October 6, 1944 were assembled and organized by a number of persons who were well familiar with our home community and their work can be accepted as being accurate.  All who worked on it deserve our sincere thanks.  In this regard we further note that several of the smaller streets that had unfamiliar names before the last war are identified by the new names that were in use for the purpose of the statistical information.  As is well known, the whole area known as “Klein Vojka” was counted as part of the Bahnstrasse

     Finally I thank all our countrymen who provided me with individual contributions or historical information about our home community. 

     I hope that this present work can add a further cornerstone to the history of Neu-Pasua.
