Josephine,

First, you need to change your computer's clock- it is giving dates from 
2003.

Second, it appears that the closest Lutheran parish to Przybyszow is 
Dziepółć, which was apparently formed in 1841 (our scanned maps page 
oddly shows the formation date as 1843). You can order the film from 
your local Family History Center using the numbers in the second film 
shown at

The film should be in Polish.

If he really married in Volhynia, there will only be a listing of the 
name of the bride and groom and the wedding date. I do not, however, see 
the marriage in the St. Petersburg data. That being the case, you will 
probably want to look for the marriage in the Dziepółć records, since 
family legends may not be correct as to the place of marriage.

At age 14 he went with his family to Volyynia where he married Karoline Kaidannek.  Where would I write to find the parents of Traugott and the marriage of Traugott and Karoline?  In 1899 he was with his family in Manitoba. He later farmed in Libau Manitoba. To date I cannot find either on the St. Petersburg records or any databases I have looked at.   Thanks for any helo anyone can give me, Josephine Herndler
