    1. [PRUSSIA-ROOTS] Hoffmann and Lamprecht from Ciechanowiec
    2. Vera Miller

    3. Hello all, I am stuck in researching my Hoffmann and Lamprecht ancestry. My great-great-great-great-grandparents Carl Gottlieb Hoffmann and Catharine Lamprecht had a son, Carl, in 1835 in Ciechanowiec near Bialystok. I cannot find Carl Jr. in church records. Bialystok archives has records starting in 1847. Latvia archives has records from 1834-1875. Does anyone know if records earlier than 1834 exist? Thanks, Vera

    3. Hello Vera, I guess your ancestors were Protestant since you mention that the Bialystok records start in 1847. Indeed the Protestant birth records of this town begin in 1847. But I don't guess that the Protestant people from Ciechanowiec went to Bialystok to baptize their children; Bialsystok is about 80 km away from Ciechanowiec and without car and train it's near impossibile to go this way each sunday to visit the church. Ciechanowiec has an own Protestant cemetery and and also an own Protestant chapel. So I think they had their own church books too. Since I don't find any information about the Protestant church records of Ciechanowiec, those records may be lost by the WW2.
