Where's Grumbkow Germany 1878 + Damme Koslin Pommern Please???
« on: Friday 08 December 23 23:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi to the group
This is tormenting me...Albertine Caroline Rosin b.1855 died 1912 Australia married apparently 1874 Theodor Robert Ernst Herrmann 1852-1927 died Australia
This information was borrowed from trees on ancestry.....says her

birth was 10 March 1855 Vangerske Koslin, Pommern

Marriage 5 June 1874 Dannen Koslin Pommern

marriage 5 June 1874 Damme Mecklenburg Seenplatte Mecklenburg Vorpommern

Residence March 1878 Grumbkow Pommern

There is no information with her parents Henry Rosin and Helene Coldon...I cannot find these places in Germany and therfore I cannot find a marriage or birth ...Appreciate any help or advice to get me through this rainy weekend
Cheers and Thankyou Rick in Australia

A tree that I can see on Ancestry says that the marriage details (5 June 1874) of Theodor and Albertine was taken from the birth certificate of daughter Maria Alwine (1886)
"Marriage location from birth certificate of Maria Alwine Hermann is; Damme, Stolpe, Germany. Using Meyers Gazetteer the location is more likely Stolp Kries."

https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/10316043

The birth details they have for Albertine Caroline -
"Birth location shown on Maria Alwine & Carl Friedrich Hermann birth certificate is Wangerske, Stolpe, Germany. Actual details taken from Meyers Gazetteer. Vengerske is GutsB (Estate District). Birth year assumed from Hamburg Immigration lists."

Appreciate any help or advice to get me through this rainy weekend
Cheers and Thankyou Rick in Australia

Not sure where you are - here in Sydney at 12:30 it's sunny and 40°C!

Think Pommern is Pomerania, Prussia. Likewise I think Grumbkow was a place in Prussia. Prussia now seems to be split between a few countries, Poland, Germany, Russia, etc. These areas in central europe have seen many changes over the centuries.

Spot on Thankyou....
I think the confusion was ...there is a "place" in Germany called Stolp where some of these place names Im looking for are...I understand that Slope means city
Thanks again
