Title: Stettin Family GERMANY
Post by: Elan on Saturday 08 May 21 04:43 BST (UK)
Hello I am looking for any information for the above family believed to be from the Sachsen or Schonberg Altmark areas in Germany. ( not sure if they in the same area)
Charlotte Maria Augusta Stettin B 1844 immigrated to NZ in 1874. Would like to track her parents and any siblings and or relatives.
Thankyou you in advance from New Zealand.
I cannot speak or read German.

You may have this already ... the passenger list for her arrival in New Zealand  (on the Reichstag, departed Hamburg 10 May 1874) she is listed as a servant, aged 30, from Schönberg, Altmark.

Schönberg is a small village (current population: 500) in the Altmark region. Today it is in the German state of Sachsen-Anhalt (Saxony-Anhalt).
I don't know if the church records are anywhere online?

The surname is a bit hard to google because Stettin in the name of a city in modern day Poland (Szczecin).
