Thank you for pointing out the mistake. The 2098/1073 mistake was a typo in the name. The link still went to 2098. Those books are lists of burials in the Wolschan cemetery? Are they indexed anywhere?
You may want to update the discontinued badatelna.eu links (I wish I could navigate the new site! it’s apparently all there… if you know how to find anything)
And see this helpful thread on converting between the new and old sites: https://www.geni.com/discussions/215542
