Ann, Children of that time would sent to be apprentices under the tutelage of a master. The master's name was the key to trade, therfore a name change would occurr. It could be that the apprentice reverted to his original name, not sure. Absent LDS, try contacting the largest municipality in the area. Generally, they are most cooperative and will send you in the best direction. Also, Many records have been destroyed with all the conflicts that have taken place. Good luck, JimK, Lux
