My great uncle wrote in his calendar book:
Vaters grab (father's grave)
No. 203
Gruppe 3 (Group 3)
Abteilung 1 (Section 1)

Unfortunately he failed to note the name of the cemetery or the city. Since he was Catholic is there some sort of Catholic Archdiocese that might be able to advise me? I have the deceased persons name and approximate range of years in which he died (1900-1911). Due to the fact that the grave has a "group and section number" leads me to think that he is in a LARGE city cemetery rather than a small church one. He was born in Kristanov,South Bohemia and there is no record of his death in the Volary, CZ registry office which keeps the death records for Kristanov so it is believed that he had moved to another city or town

OK, I selected the Catholic diocese for Ceske Budejovice (Budweis) in which Kristanov is located and sent them an email. I will now say a prayer and hope for the best. Thanks a lot for the link !!
