I am wondering if someone can tell me where to look for birth or marriage records for residents of a small town called Kumken, Regenwalda in what is now Poland.
I am trying to find Johann Schmaling (Schmeling) born 12/8/1846 in Kumken I would like the name of his parents and grandparents if it listed.
He married Whilimena Bucholtz sometime in 1873 we believe in the same area I would like to learn the name of her parents as well. We believe her mother's name was Charlotte and she came to America with Whilimena and her grandsons in 1885.
I believe they were Lutheran so if someone know which parish record that would be it will make the search easier. We have all the info on them once they reached the US, but nothing from the old world they came from.
Thanks for any help.
