Salzwedel from Duesterbeck, Naugard, Pomerania, Prussia

Surnames: Salzwedel, Rabach, Schwede
Hello,

I have been having a very hard time locating any information, or records on some ancestors who came from Duesterbeck in Kreis Naugard.

Wilhelm (William) Salzwedel, Born about 1825
Petronella Rabach (Kubach?), Born about 1840
Bertha (Berta) Salzwedel, Born 1872

They came to the USA in 1892, and were headed to Wausau, Wisconsin. They did end up here, and Bertha married William Schwede (grandfather was Carl Schweden, from Voigtshagen in Kreis Naugard) on 13 Apr 1893 in Marathon County, Wisconsin.

I have their ship manifests, and the marriage record for when Bertha married, which is where I found Petronella's maiden name, but I cannot find anything before they arrived in America. Nor do I have any information for William and Petronella for while they were in the states. I do have information, records, and even pictures of Bertha (she was my great-great grandmother).

I am not sure if the records are just not there, they changed their name, or I am missing something?

If anyone could help with the surname origin and possible variations that could help me find more information I would be very grateful.

Thank you!

Debbi
