Dear Cindy,
My Topel ancestors settled in Minnesota, but I think you will find the following links to be of interest in your search:
(My Topels were from: German name: Zezenow, Stolp, Pommern, Current name: Cecenowo, Slupskie Poland E17°32' N54°38'. Follow this link:

The next link, below, goes to a handwritten map of the village, which shows several Topel families still there in 1945.

If this may be a connection to your family, please email me for more Topel information. I feel confident that we can make a connection. The Topels in my line tended to very large families. Please contact me.
