I have several questions. I do have ancestors from your part of the world. In particular I have ancestors from the Handewitt parish and the Medebly parish.
1. For some time I have been attempting to purchase a copy of "Chronik der Kirchengemeinde Handewitt". There seems to be no source in this country. Do you have any suggestions on how I might purchase the book?
2. My great-great-great grandfather Jabob Petersen was born in Handewitt parish 16 November 1767. His parents were Peter Hansen and Anna Jacobsen. They are mentioned in the above book. I am wondering if it is possible to get a copy of the birth record of Jacob.?
3. Peter was from Handewitt and Anna from Medebly. They were married 7 April 1760 in Medebly. Is it possible to get a copy of the marriage record?
4. Anna was born, I think, in 1733 in Medebly. I would like a copy of that record as well but I really would like to find the name of her parents.
5. Peter and Anna died within a day of each other. This is recorded in the Handewitt parish, 21 and 22 April 1771. Jacob was very young and I think he and his siblings may have been raised by Anna's relatives in the Medebly parish. I wonder if a record of Jacobs confirmation could be found to verify this?
Help on any or all of these problems would be appreciated. More ancestors are from your area but more research must be done before I can pin point the exact region.
Thank you for your consideration.
