[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Some unanswered questions

[Richard Stein]

Carol,

The best way to determine connections is from marriage records which usually give the ages, birthplaces, and parents' names.  Do you have the full marriage record of August Schuhmann / Auguste Freimann from film 2380027?  It should have the above information.

Probably all the Schumann people in Boguslawka are related.  The confirmation records indicate they came from Doelfusbruch bei Schoenlanke, Preussen.  There is also mention of Dolfussbruck, Deutsch Krone, Marienwerder which is probably the same place.  Others may be able to help you with information about records from Doelfusbruch.
