Hello everyone! I am new here hoping to connect with people who I can possibly make connections with and/or get some advice/tips/resources to assist with learning more of the surname Lentz and hopefully narrowing down where my 2nd great grandfather was born and confirm his parents/ siblings etc

My 2nd great grandfather is Wilhelm Lentz, some have his entire name as Wilhelm Friedrich Gustave Lentz but I have yet to find supporting proof of this. Also, any and all info on sites such as Ancestry, Family Search etc is either mine or I have exhausted my search on so I hope to gain more info otherwise.

He was born April 4 1869 in what his death certificate says, Poland. He passed in Alberta, Canada in 1946. His first wife was Agathe Fenske who is my 2nd great grandmother and I hope to find record of marriage for them as well. Second wife was Emeila Greening/Gruning. I have all info of there children as well.

My great grandmother was Mathilde Lentz/Lenz, she wads born March 26 1893 in Dombrowka and was baptized in the Tutschyn parish, one of her siblings Emilie was born in 1896 in Tomaschow. If that maybe helpful.

I am struggling to find records in Russia/Poland/Germany of him and his family and also would appreciate some support to narrow down where to look, any helpful strategies, resources are appreciated!

Thanks!

Hi Sophi3,
Could you please download the documents you have? In Poland there are 100 places called Dabrowka. What is Mathilde's maiden name?

Best,
