Hi,
Civil registration records for years 1874-1911 are in a state archives in Bydgoszcz. Their address is:

Tell them you are interested in a set (zespół)1620 Urząd Stanu Cywilnego Chojnice
They may charge you for doing the research so give them as much details as you have.

Later records in a local civil registry office in Chojnice (you will have to prove them you are a direct descendant of a person born in 1914.

Their address is:
Urząd Miejski w Chojnicach
