To all,

Also remember that the h in the middle of a name is often omitted.   If 
you do that, then we have Fuelle as a possibility.    We have two of 
those in the Master Pedigree Database,  the younger one (born in 1839) 
being from Nowa Lutka/Nowa Lodka [Lodz-Gorna-Rynek], Lodz, Lodzkie, Poland.
