    2. 101heath

    3. I found my Ziebell surname in the Church directory listings for Evang. 1868-1916 in Schivelbein, Pommerania, Prussia. They were not in the Catholic church membership surname list. Does anyone know-- does Evang. mean protestant? It was in German. The word was not spelled out. Just Evang. Kirche-Schivelbein.

    3. Evang. was usually a abbreviation for Evangilistic which is a branch of the Luthern church. Protestant is something entirely different from what I've found. You could check with the Protestant church itself to find out. Just look them up online and email them.

    3. This is the Evangelical Lutheran Church.
