Hi,
What do you think about that place?
Wykroty (German: Waldau in der Oberlausitz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Nowogrodziec, within Bolesławiec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship.

I took a look of the villlage and it seems to have no protestant church and no digital church records, so I should I search for Traugott's Birth Record

Previously, Zgorzelec (a Polish town on the German border) was called Görlitz. Possibly it can limit searches.

Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Wykroty was formerly evangelical. The local evangelical community included Godzieszów and Wykroty.

Came back with saying they don't know the whereabouts of the Kirchenbuch. However, they said that it could be that they are registered under the parish of Nowogrodziec. Fortunately, there are parish registers but they are only accesible from home until 1800.

Before 1800:

After 1800 (start. 1802):

Nr 21

It happened in the town of Władysławów, on November 24th, 1831, at 3 p.m.

We make it known that in the presence of the witnesses, Andrzej Neumann, 27 years old and Karol Müller, 31 years old, both okupniks [okupnik: a peasant paying rent in exchange for release from serfdom] living in the village of Kotwasice, a religious marriage was concluded on this day, between:

Jan Karol Matyś, a single man, an okupnik living in the village of Kotwasice, 22 years old, who was born in the village of ?Molda? in The Grand Dutchy of Posen, a son of the late Jan Henryk Matyś and his wife, living in Kotwasice, Anna Rozyna nee Neumann, the Matyś spouses

and

Wilhelmina Karolina Schüller, a miss, the oldest daughter of Wilhelm Schüller, an okupnik and Anna nee Bucholtz, the Schüller spouses, living in the village of Kotwasice, 23 years old, who was born in the village of Polichno located near the town of Landsberg by the Warta River [Landsberg nowadays is: Gorzów Wielkopolski], living at her parents' in the village of Kotwasice.

This marriage was preceded by the 3 banns of marriage, announced on Sundays: on November 5th, 13th and 20th of the current year, in the evangelical parish church in Władysławów.

Bride's parents and groom's mother, who were present at drafting this marriage act, gave their oral permission for this marriage.

The newlyweds declared they did not enter into the prenuptial agreement.

This act was read to the newlyweds and the witnesses, who were illiterate.

Thank you so much!

Edit:

Possibly the village the groom was born in was Waldau
