Please forgive me writing in English - I have long researched my Great-Grandfather, Friedrich Gustav Kunz (known as "Gustav"), who I believe was born in Schnellwalde on 18th November 1870. He joined the Prussian Cavalry (I have a splendid photograph of him in Uhlan uniform) and later settled in Christburg, Kreis Stuhm.
His father - Friedrich Wilhelm Kunz was born on 16th October 1845 in Dittersdorf, Schnellwalde; I have a possible record of his death in 1873, but this is from Nakel, which seems to be too far away... His wife was Henriette Preuss (daughter of Christoph Preuss and Katharina W Hopp) also born in Dittersdorf on 12th March 1846...
Have you come across any of these names, by any chance?
Best Regards
Peter
