Genealogy / Richert, Bonkoska from Jasień, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship [8]

My grandmother, Bertha Richert b. 13 NOV 1883 left Jasien in 1902 for America. I know she left behind a mother, Luisa nee Bonkoska Richert for married Jan Rossol in 1902 and they had one daugher, Olga Rossol in 1903. Olga married Adam Patz in 1920. I would like to find out more information about my grandmother's family. They were Lutheran and baptisms, marriages, etc were preformed in Lipno.

I think Bertha's father, Bartholomew (Bartholomäus) Richert, was a farmer, possible landowner. Where would I be able to find land records for the area?

Would love hear from anyone with any information.

Thank you!!

Wynn

Thank you - I will check the links out.

Not surprised about the land records. I know most if not all the ethnic Germans were moved back to Germany after World War II, probably with only the items they could carry that survived the war. I know Olga was in the British Zone for a while. Don't know what happened to the rest of the family.

Thank you for the information. The spelling of the name is from the marriage record of Jan Rossol and Luis Richert which I have a scan of the original record. I have thought that Richert might have been changes at some point and my research does show some possibility of Reichert. My grandmother wrote the name both ways from time to time but the "official" documents of her life that I have are all Richert.
