Kijewo – Gmina Gniewkowo – Slownik Geograficzny Translations
Hello,
Below is my translation of the Słownik Geograficzny Krolestwa Polskiego entry for Kijewo. Any errors in the translations are completely my own.
Location information:
Current administrative location: Kijewo, Gmina Gniewkowo, Powiat Inowrocław, Województwo Kujawsko-Pomorskie, Poland.
Administrative location in 1895 (Słownik Geograficzny Krolestwa Polskiego): Kijewo, Kreis Inowroclaw, Regierungsbezirk Bromberg, Provinz Posen, Kaiserlich Deutsches Reich.
1) A dominium located in powiat Inowrocław. The Kijewo dominium had an area of 1908 morgs of open land. Kijewo has 8 houses with 110 inhabitants (94 Catholics and 16 Evangelical Protestants). There are 45 inhabitants that are illiterate.The post office is located 4 kilometers away in Murzynno (German name: Morin). The railway station and telegraph office are located in Gniewkowo (German name: Argenau), which is about 6 kilometers away.
A few years ago, Kijewo was owned by the Kozłowski family, but now it has passed into German hands.

The Slownik entry for Kijewo did not list a parish. The Murzynno Parish is located 4 kilometers away, so this could possibly be the parish for Kijewo.
Best Regards,
