Familiengeschichte Prellwitz - Family Prellwitz history

Hello,
I'm new here and I am looking to know about my ancestors.
Unfortunately, my German is not very good so I will write in English, although I can read in German.
My mother was born in Danzig, and what I could know so far about my ancestors, who lived in eastern Germany, is the following:
Matilde Lenz y Paul Prellwitz had two daughters:
Maria Mathilde Prellwitz, born in 1906 in Elsenau,
Anna Elisabeth Prellwitz, born in 1913 in Wongrowitz,
Gertraud Maria Prellwitz, was born in Danzig-Langfuhr in January, 1943. Her mother was Anna Elisabeth.
On her birth certificate, it is not written her father's name.
In a data base of arrivals of passenger ships to Buenos Aires, I found:
Martha Prellwitz, born in 1908,
Jurgen Prellwitz, born in 1916 in Wilhelmhefen,
But I am not sure if they were children of Mathilde and Paul. I know Martha was my mother's aunt, but I do not know if she was a sister of Anna, or the wife of a brother of Anna.
Is it possible to confirm if Martha and Jurgen were daughter and son of Paul and Mathilde, and if there were any other siblings? Did Anna live with her parents and siblings in Danzig?
I will appreciate if you can help me answer these questions.
Thanks!

HI Patricia,
I don't think I can help you.

Maria Mathilde PRELLWITZ was born in 1906 in Elsenau

When it was baptized evangelical, the church books of Elsenau were destroyed during World War II.

If she was Catholic, the church books of Förstenau were also destroyed during the Second World War.

The registrar responsible for Elsenau was Gotzkau [Gockowo] in the district of Schlochau

I can't say anything to the birthplace of Anna Elisabeth in Wongrowitz.

At Ancestry, I can't find entries with the data you've given.

I'm sorry
Frank

Frank,
Thank you for trying to help me. I know it is difficult to get to know much about my ancestors.
Is it possible to find out if there was someone with the Prellwitz surname who worked in Danzig between 1935 and 1940?

Dear Patricia, dear Frank,

I'm not quite convinced that the mentioned Elsenau in the district of Schlochau is the right one. It's rather sure that the following one will be the right one:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damas%C5%82awek

I'm thinking of this one due to the fact, that it's situated in the 'Powiat Wągrowiecki' - that's the 'Wongrowitz County'.

A person named Heinrich PRELLWITZ, born 1894-10-16, could be found living at 'Lützowstr. 18' in Danzig. He was a 'Reichsbahn Sekretär'.
He was married to Martha born SCHWARZ, * 1903-09-28.


Best regards

Peter

Hi Patricia,
therefor i‘ve have to take a Look to the adressbooks of Danzig.
But it will Takes a Time.
Greetings,
Frank

Hello Peter,
And thank you so much for the information!
Regards :)

Hello Patricia,

if you're interested in some more information concerning the County Wongrowitz and if you are familiar with the use of so called djvu-files you can download a scanned book from 1905 in a zip container at:

http://www.wbc.poznan.pl/dlibra/docm...om=publication

Included is the following map of the region:

Anhang 23778

(here reproduced in a lower resolution).

Do you have more specific information concerning the names you mentioned in your article # 1? For example the exact date of birth or a web link to the sources you got your information from.


Best regards

Peter

Thank you Peter!
I just find out about the djvu-files two days ago when I read Frank's message about addressbooks of Danzig and I looked for it on internet :)
I could read the file online, but not offline yet, because a software error, I need to do this with time :)
I have some more specific information about mother and grandmother:
Grandmother, Anna Elisabeth Prellwitz, date of birth is 15/4/1913,
Mother, Gertraud Maria Prellwitz, date of birth is 24/1/1943, in Danzig-Langfuhr, address: Paul Fressonkestrasse 9 (This is the information I found in her birth certificate).
I found most of the dates of birth and places of birth in documents my mother kept.
I also found Jurgen and Martha names in a data base of passengers who came to Buenos Aires (that web page is in spanish), where I found information of the age they have when they came here.
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
Patricia
