Hi there, I'm researching my family tree and have traced back my ancestors to Konigsberg, East Prussia. I would appreciate any help on finding more information about Christian Friedrich HERBST. He was a sword maker and arrived in South Africa in 1752 (presumably from East Prussia). Married Catharina STOLTS on 10 Oct 1756. Died 1794. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Information from the Bethel Cemetery in Renville County, MN lists Herman Albert Reinke, husband of Bertha Duenow Reinke and brother of Albertina Reinke Sell, b. 10 Mar 1845 in Neu Doebritz, Kr Regenwalde, Pommern, Pr. I believe Neu Doebritz is in Poland now. Can anybody help us find it's Polish name and/or identify the church parish associated with Neu Doebritz. Thanks for any help. Arletta and Jim Webster

Several weeks ago someone was looking for a Polish phone book. I happened on this site with linkes to International Telephone Directories. I don't know if it might help or not.... The first one I went to was this: http://contractjobs.com/tel/ This may link to the same site: http://www.numberway.com/ Nancy. ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Are you sure the spelling of STOLTS is correct? The spelling of a family in New Hampton, Iowa was STOLTZ. Arnold Ross <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone. Find out more about what's free from AOL at http://www.aol.com.

It appears you have a bit more research to do before you can delve into Prussian records. Konigsberg was a larger area with several smaller communities. See the following listings in the LDS Library Catalog . . . http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=localityhitlist&columns=*%2C0%2C0&PLACE=Konigsberg&PARTOF=&prePLACE=Konigsberg&prePARTOF= You'll need to know which of the smaller communities where your ancestors lived (often found in the records of their new country) in order to find their names and extend your family tree. However, you could be in luck because some of the church records in the Konigsberg listings go back to the mid 1600s. Good luck, LGO -----Original Message----- >From: Beyers Herbst <beyers@eventsplanner.co.za> > >Hi there, > >I'm researching my family tree and have traced back my ancestors to >Konigsberg, East Prussia.

Hi Karl, Thank you for the information. It is more likely that this family would be that of a brother to my Alvine who bas born 1850 and whose sisters were born 1839 and 1845. My Alvine named a daughter like #10 Emma Wilhelmine Auguste. I will keep this town in mind when searching for church records.

Dewey I should included in the first e-mail , that what I found of Bernhard J. T. Kittle , is no more that what You already have. So about the only other thing that I know of , is for You to check out some LDS microfims , However there are several listed and the town of Storkow may be a Kreis , which means that You may have to view a lot of films.
