Reinhold Skowronnek b. 1820 Germany

[Scottie Lark]

Hello

I'm looking for information about Reinhold Skowronnek whom Ancestry.com shows as being born in 1820 in Hennweiler, Bad Kreuznach, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany and is the father of Aldeburt Frederick Skowronnek (1844-1926) and William Julius Hermann Skowronnek (1847-1888). Both sons immigrated to London.

I'd like to confirm those details and find any other information concerning the family in Germany (Prussia?), such as where the sons were born and when they immigrated.

Thanks

Bill

Not having much luck on this one, but Albert/Adalbert gives birthplace as Prussia on one English census, which would have included Rheinland.
 There do not seem to be any naturalization papers for either son in the National archives. Hennweiler records are not digitised on Archion yet. The ones on familysearch are too early and only available to view at their centres.

 I also found no mention in the online German newspaper archives at

Interestingly,  using the more usual spelling of Skowronek, looking at a surname distribution map of Germany there is a large group in the western state of Nordrhein-Westfalen, although the surname is of Polish origin.

Looking at a distribution map for Poland it is concentrated in the Voivodeships of Silesia (śląskie ) and to a lesser extent in Lower Poland(małopolskie)and Opole(opolskie).

Using Gedbas, the majority of entries are from Ost Prussia/ Poland/Silesia

Thanks Fiddlerslass for all of your efforts and the interesting links.

Yes, I noticed that Albert gave his place of birth as either "Prussia" or "Germany" on different censuses.  They also seem to use both spellings of "Skowron(n)ek".
