[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Evang. Kirche/Protestant church Manisty?

[Jerry Frank]

A Lutheran family living remotely from a parish centre probably kept its 
faith.  They may even have been served by a pastor who travelled by from 
time to time.  However, they would have been obligated, by the civil 
government, to register their events at the Catholic Church.

I would encourage you to check the records of the Catholic Church to see if 
you can find them.  In my own experience, my Hemminger ancestors lived at 
Kochanow, east of Lodz, and their events from 1808 through 1826 (when the 
Lutheran Church was established at Rawa) were registered at the Gluchow 
Catholic Church.
