Dear Listers
My GreatGrandFather - Adolph Priess b; September 14, 1841 in PRUSSIA/Germany.
I have a place of birth for his father - Jaochim Frederich Pries, b; abt. d. 1814 as:
Klain Tazelabin, Trefton on the Tolens, Prussia.
I have been concentrating on the spelling using the Prie"ss", but I have found that
the use of Prie"s" is also a possibility.
In trying to identify the specific location I have been led to believe that;
1. "Trefton on the Tolens" is likely to be "Treptow on the Tollensee".
2. "Klain Tazelabin" is most likely "Klein Tetzleben".
Using my available resources I have identified the following locations:
ALTENTREPTOW STADT, Kreis Demmin
KLEIN TEETZLEBEN, Kreis Demmin
TREPTOW, Kreis Saatzig
TREPTOW a/Rega STADT, Kreis Greifenberg
I am now at a loss of how to proceed to a positive identification.
Can anyone give me some assistance?
