Thanks for any input

Hi Andrew,

Your family members are not found on E-kartoteka because the names found on that site were those individuals who lived in the city of Poznań, not in the whole of what was known during the 19th Century after 1848 as the Province of Posen (German: Provinz Posen; Polish: Prowincja Poznańska). Prior to 1848 it was known as the Grand Duchy of Posen (German: Großherzogtum Posen; Polish: Wielkie Księstwo Poznańskie). The Polish Genealogical Society has a sub-site which contains scans of some population registers https://meldunkowe.genealodzy.pl/ However, the only towns and villages I’ve seen on that site were in Russian controlled Poland aka The Kingdom of Poland (Królestwo Polskie).

Wishing you continued successful research,

Dave
