Birgit,
According to the book "Polish Localities in the Russian Partition and
Their Parish Affiliationns, Vol. 1, Bialystok, Lomza Plock Dioceses",
Wincentowo was located in the Plock diocese, and the Catholic parish for
that village was Lubiel to the northeast of that village.
If I take that parish name and look on www.familysearch.org, I see that
there are films for that parish from 1799 to 1902. Be aware that even
though your family was evangelical, their events may still be recorded
in the Catholic parish after the formation of the Evangelical parish.
In rare cases, you may find events recorded in both the Catholic and
Evangelical parishes. The link to the films in Lubiel is
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titlefilmnotes&columns=*%2C0%2C0&titleno=672035&disp=Kopie+ksi%C4%99g+metrykalnych++
Even though Lubiel is the designated Catholic parish for Wincentowo,
that village appears to be about the same distance from the Catholich
parishes of Sokolowo to the northwest, and Porzadzie to the south, so
you might also find records for your family in those parish records.
