Can someone please help me find some records in Poland about my grandfather and great grand father.
Edward Helwig was married to Amelia Klinger. They lived in Russia-Poland in what is now called the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship. They had nine children. The first (Augusta Helwig) was born in Russia-Germany in 1876. She left Nieszawa for America in 1898. Caroline immigrated in 1898 , Edward, August (from Lipno)and Matilda (from Plock) in 1901, Adolph in 1903 (from Brobrowniki), Otto in 1906 (from Rybitwa, Lipno), Emelie (unknown), and Bertha in 1909 (from Rybit, Plock).
Adolph (born in Lipno) was my grandfather. I would like to have records of his life in Poland. I am mostly interested in Edward and Amelia. Knowing where they came from, who their parents were. Birth and death records.
Augusta was born in 1876 so Edward had to have been born pre-1858. Bertha came to America in 1909 and stated on her ship list that Edward was alive in Rybit at that time.
I have searched all over for any info about Helwigs from Poland and especially Kuyavian-Pomeranian province but have never found ANY.
I have many records from almost all of the siblings while in America but have never found anything about their them or their parents in Poland. A family record states that Edward was born under the rule of Czar Nicholas in the town of Voska- Budea with I think may have actually been a mis-pronounciation of Wolsche Buden or Wolschebuden. I have also found that Wolschebuden is the German name for Makowiska.
A map shows Makowiska in the same province as where the siblings came from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makowi...dgoszcz_County.
So, anything that could be found would be appreciated.
