Maps:
The map below is a combination of maps found on the website for Map Archive of Wojskowy Instytut Geograficzny: http://english.mapywig.org/news.php. The map below is derived from the following areas: Skrzeszewo, Sierakowice, Miechucino, Gowidlino, Kamienica Szlachecka, Goręczyno, Sułęczyno, Skorzewo, Szymbark, Lipusz, Kościerzyna, and Wielki Klińcz. I used Image Composite Editor to merge the maps into a panorama of the area where my ancestors were located. The map is not 100% aligned, but it does give a general idea of where villages were located.

Map Key:
- The villages with “stars” are the locations that Piotr Szutenberg and/or Magdalena Zaborowska lived.
- The villages with “diamonds” are the locations that the couple’s children lived.
More information for the villages within this article can be found on the Słownik Geograficzny Translations page on this website: http://www.apagr.com/slownik-geograficzny-translations/
Assumptions/Theories/Roadblocks:
- The Stężyca Parish baptismal records between the years of 1792-1805 are missing. The years between 1805-1819 have many faded pages that make the records almost illegible.
- Piotr Szutenberg is a son of one of the Szutenberg families from the Chmielno Parish. A number of people from the Chmielno Szutenberg families would reside in the villages of the Stężyca and Sierakowice Parishes.
- Magdalena Zaborowska was a sibling to Michał and Franciszek Zaborowski who lived in the villages of the Stężyca and Sułęczyno Parishes.
- Piotr and Magdalena would marry around 1815-1816.
- Marianna Szutenberg was born in the Stężyca Parish around 1816.
Research Leads/Plans:
- Search for B-M-D records for the remaining family members.
- Locate the marriage of Piotr Szutenberg and Magdalena Zaborowska.
- Find the parents of both Piotr and Magdalena.
- Find death record of Jan Szutenberg, who died prior to 1853.
