Hi, Surname Keywords: Regal, Schwartz, Gumpert, Gumpertz, Gumperz, Hamler, Hammler, Seehaber Riegel, Regel, Regall, Rigel, Margel, Margell, Swartz Drew, Drews. I am researching the following families and individuals. GOTTLIEB JOHN REGAL, b Jan 1838, in Posen. Parents are supposed to be Jacob and Rose REGAL of Posen. This person is my main line of research. Alias: Gottlieb John Regal, Gottlieb Johann Regal, Johann Gottlieb Regal. Gottfred REGAL, b Apr, 1836, Prussia, brother of Gottlieb. Alias: Godfred W. Regal. Friederich Wilhelm REGAL, b Jan, 1840, Prussia. Where's Dronzonek? Married Anna Caroline DREWS in 1864. These surnames might be alias surnames to avoid being found. REGAL is a very rare name. Gottlieb was supposed to be raised in Posen, parents died, he was orphaned, passed around to relatives, and then immigrated to the US in about 1865-1870. Other immigrants to the US in the time periods of 1850 to 1890: Karl MARGEL1843. Justienne Christine SEEHABER HAMLER 1798. Johann SCHWARTZ of Okolla near Crone on the Brada (River) 1809. Augusta Emilie GUMPERT of Vandsberg / Vansberg, 1854. Anna Caroline FIEDLER, born Prussia, lady in waiting (?), born 1839. I am trying to determine the church where records of Gottlieb would be found in Posen. But is that the city or Province? Thank you for any help you can provide. Beaurega
