I am going to hold out hope for you that the marriage will be found in Lublin.? And it just might.
I checked 1884-1888 for the marriage, and found nothing.
?
I do not yet have a fine-tuned sense of when a big migration from the Lublin/Chelm region
over to Rozyszcze/Vladimir Volynsk area occurred, but have learned that several of my
grandfather's own first cousins did, around 1888 or 1889, though.? Right now, I am only
indexing the post 1885 Rozyszcze marriages.? I will not get my fine tuning sense until I do
complete transcriptions of these same marriages that I will use later for entry into the
SGGEE Pedigree Database.? Don't anybody look for these families in the SG pedigree
database any time soon.
?
Returning to your problem, It occurs to me strongly that we may also be dealing with religion
here.? Ebenezer, SK at this early date was very Baptist, mostly out of the parish in Zezulin
in the Lublin area.? The family of my grandfather's older brother Gottfried Muth was in Ebenezer
from 1888, as well as his in-laws the Milbradts.
?
If ya'll are Baptists, you've got a different can of worms.? And welcome to my world.? The
Lublin team has been very generous with me, sharing little tidbits here and there from the
Lublin Lutheran church project, but I suspect that my two biggest prize records are
going to be from the Zezulin Baptist church:? my grandfather's 1883 first marriage and
his father's murder (sometime before 1888; while carrying rent money, he picked up
a hitchhiker, who killed him with an axe and took all the money). Everybody was
Lutheran till then, but the conversion was, say 1880, give or take 5 years.
?
There are many, many Germans whose last name ends in -ski, and has for generations
lost back before the beginning of records for us.? Did Teofila have any known relatives
herself in this country (Canada, in her case)?? Does her death certificate name parents?
(Saskatchewan holds the distinction in my memory of charging the absolute highest price
for a death certificate that I have ever paid in my life).
?
And I detect some hesitation in her surname Malachowski, Malaszewski.? There are several
Malanowskys on the ship "Polynesia" that my great-grandmother Johanna Abraham Muth
came over on, aged 68, arriving New York 14 April 1888.? All these surnames Mala-
are derivatives of the adjective MALY = 'small' = 'klein'? I cannot vouch for the ethnicity
or religion of the Polynesia Malanowskys, though they were born in Russia.
?
Just a few thoughts...
?

Al,
I appreciate your effort.
The marriage may have taken place earlier than 1888, but not later.
I have pretty solid data that Edmunda Lange was born June 18, 1888 and
Edward born July 25, 1889 (family records, obits/graves, passenger lists and
Canadian census), but they could have been a year earlier I guess. My
grandfather Emil Lange was the youngest of this marriage, born January 19,
1891 in Winnipeg, three months after their arrival from Russian Poland.
There may have been earlier children or a period of time between marriage
and first birth. I have virtually no information about the immediate family
prior to their October 1890 transit to Canada.

I have checked my transcribed Rozyszcze marriages 1886-1888 and find no
record of a marriage between Christian Lange and Teofila Malachowski
Are the birth years of the children "written in stone"?? That is, is there a
possibility that the marriage could be a year sooner, or a year later?

Gary,
Scheple (Szepec) and Ludwischen, though near Lutsk, were in Rozyszcze
Parish. Original parish records are not yet extracted but have been
microfilmed. See
http://www.sggee.org/church_parishes/LutheransInVolhyniaKievPodolia
for full list of available records.
Unlike the St. Pete records, a marriage record there will most
probably provide you with a specific place of birth for her. If not,
check for a Confirmation record c.1881 that also often provides a
place of birth.
