There are some online records for Posen - maybe you already have seen these images but maybe not They are at the site familysearch.labs - images of baptism, marriage and death entries from the state copies of some parish registers for the provinces of Brandenburg and Posen, Germany. Most of the Posen villages are now in Poland. The collection is for browsing, not a direct search. I did not see the village name of Bidgoszcz but if you look through the list of villages maybe there is another one that is in the vicinity. the site is at labs.familysearch.org you have to register your email address to access the site. I have used it for over a year and am satisfied with all it has.

Would you share the sites you have for searching across the pond?
