[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] villages

[Dave Obee]

The Stolp ones appear to be in a nice little cluster about 25 kilometres
east of beautiful downtown Stolp. Most appear to still be there, albeit with
Polish names. Schonfeld is gone.

The Rummelsburg one is northwest of Rummelsburg, almost due south of Stolp.

Bear in mind that Family Search records are under the names of the villages
that had the churches, and that a dozen or more smaller churches could have
been included in a larger parish. It is no surprise that these places are
not listed indiviualyl on Family Search. (Beyond that, of course, there is
not a lot in the FHL system from that entire area.)

You need to get a better sense of the region you are dealing with, and to
determine which nearby towns would probably have had the churches. You could
also try the Meyers Orts on Ancestry, assuming access to it is still free.
