[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] PETRIKAU, POLAND RECORDS for German heritage families -- FYI

[Hannes Werner]

Hello Jerry,

Kay referred to some information, that was partly searched by  me.  Some 
roots of our ancenstors
around Petrikau seem definitely lead to Posen- and Neumark area. The 
referred names are GRUENEICH and HANELT. Maybe, the sources do obviously NOT 
cover Petrikau-area, but there is some useful information about people who 
went there!

With help of my absolute best searching-friend Irmgard Müller, who is a 
specialist for Petrikau-area, I was able to prove, that G. and H.'s next 
origin is: from Neumark and Posen ! This  colonists seem to have immigrated 
from Baden-Würtemberg to Poland. I've got some detailed information about 
that, but it is not safe enough to publish.
I was also able to prove the origin of the Bessarabian Grueneich from the 
same area of Petrikau and Radomsk, the families in Bessarabia are definitly 
close siblings of the Grueneich from Petrikau-area.
I'm just working on finding exact information about G.- family around 
Driesen/Neumark

There is existing some "obstinate" story, especially in the United States, 
that the GRUENEICH-family immigrated from Grafenort/Habelschwerdt to Poland
That is NOT right!
The "real" Grafenort was a colony south of Belchatow, which was established 
around 1803.
Colonists of Grafenort came from ~Stawiszyn-area and before: from Posen and 
Neumark !!!

I published this information on one of my early Websites!

Just to clarify - As I understand the project and based on the listing 
shown, item #3 does not cover Petrikau which was not in Posen / Poznan.
