Hello Bronwyn & List, Thanking you very much for answering my email again. Have been going through some of the certificates that I have got. Gerswalde, Uckermark is on my Great Grandmother Louisa Marie Kuhlow Jungnickel Marriage and Death Certificates. On another 2 certificates both are Birth Certificates Grandfather, has got Prenzlow and the other Great Aunt has Benzlow Looks like to me there are some errors on the certificates. Is Prenzlau the same spelling of Prenzlow? Thanking you Anne

Hi Anne, Are these certificates from Australia, Germany, or both? They certainly give you a great starting point, despite any potential errors. How early do they date back to? Take a look here if you wish to be convinced of the earlier spelling for Prenzlau: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prenzlau I think what looks like Benzlow is more than likely also Prenzlow. The Mormons have filmed records for Gerswalde, but only back to 1845. Searching Prenzlau records can be time consuming as there were several parishes. You may have the church named on some of the records in your possession? Bronwyn.
