[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Search for ancestors settled 1821 in Wincentowo in the Pultusk area

[Earl.Schultz]

Birgit, the mention by Gary of the Plock diocese caught my attention and I
checked the records for Michalki/Rypin parish.  There are three Sokolowski
families in this parish in the 1830s/1840s, Adam, Johann, and Martin, plus
the deaths of some earlier family members back to about 1817 (Michael).  The
family disappears from this area about 1844.  While not the families you are
looking for, they may still be relatives and clues to where they came from
may be in the records.  Many families in this area came from Thorn
originally, sometimes passing through Lipno.  This may help break down the
brick wall someday if the advice of others doesn't help you.

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

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.
