Record #90 in the 1820 Catholic churchbook for Chelmno is a marriage.
About 13 lines down there is a reference "Kosciola ... Ewangeliskego". Can
anyone locate this church for me? The path to the scans is:
http://www.szukajwarchiwach.pl/54/736/0/6.1/25/str/1/1/50#tabSkany
and this record is scan 28. Possibly the same church in clearer
handwriting occurs four lines down the left side of scan 35. But I can't associate
what I read there with any particular Evangelical church. Other records
during that year reference Evangelical churches in Dabie, Gdansk, etc. (The
stats on scan 45 may be of interest to some.)
The groom's name is Daniel Hirszka, whose descendants used the surname
Hirsekorn, occasionally spelled Hirschekorn. Is it likelier that Daniel used
this spelling, or that the vicar was converting the surname into Polish?
