[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Polish records

[Robin Grube]

Since we have been talking about Polish records lately, I wonder if any of
you have looked at records of Germans born in Warsaw, probably evang
(Lutheran). I just want to know, in a general way, if you think I have any
chance of finding him just by paging through parish records. Are there civil
records available? My grandfather, when he came to the USA after marrying
another German near Kiev, wrote "Warsaw" as his place of birth on passport
application, etc. Perhaps he is not from there, at all, but just thought
that might be the only place Americans would recognize! I would be happy to
order some FHL microfilms if I knew what parish might be worth a try. My
particular details: Karl HAAK, born 1863. Only other info I have is that he
had a brother Gottlieb, born c. 1867
Thanks for any pointers. I have written about him before, but I still have
no new info, and don't know what to try next.
