I don't think the Plock archives would be of help.  You could try the 
Lutheran Archive in Warsaw but I don't know that they would have anything 
either.

The Tulowice in Opole would not be the correct location so no point 
checking there.

I'm not sure what FHC records you have for Sochaczew as Warsaw Archives 
only has records for that location for 1698-1728 and 1949-50.  FHC is 
unlikely to have anything more.

In the Sochaczew region, the FHC has Ilow, Gizyce, and Secymin.  When you 
say that 1880 is missing, I assume you may mean from the Ilow 
records.  Unfortunately there appears to be a book missing from that 
sequence and you may be out of luck in getting the info you need.
