Lewtzow/Thüronow in Mecklenburg-Vorpomm
I have my ancestor's 1819 Mecklenburg-Vorpomm census entry. It states that she was born in the Lewtzow,Thüronow parish. The only Lewtzow I can find is 100+ miles east near Cammin, and a genealogist has told me that people did not make those distant moves in the late 1700s-early 1800s. He feels that the place mentioned is near Gross Ridsenow/Polchow, where the family lived in 1819. Lewtzow might be smaller than a town; a farm? Still, no luck finding this location. Maybe I am mis-reading. Census snippet is attached -- can anyone come up with a different interpretation of the handwriting?
