Assumptions/Theories/Roadblocks:
- The villages surrounding Lubichowo can have records listed in both the Zblewo and Lubichowo Parishes.
- The Zblewo Parish death records start after 1810.
- The Pogódki Parish baptismal and death records are water damaged and hard to read for many years throughout the late 1700’s.
- The Kościerzyna Parish baptismal records are missing for the following years: 1785-1798.
- The Kościerzyna Parish marriage records are missing for the following years: 1698-1797
Research Leads/Plans:
- Search for B-M-D records for the remaining family members.
- Piece together most likely family scenarios based on available B-M-D records.
