Parishes?

Hello listers:

I just got back from the local Family History Center after looking thru the
Births/Baptisms for Graudenz for the 1875-1881 timeframe.

Graudenz was obviously the largest town in the surrounding area. Would
Graudenz be considered a diocese? Was the surrounding area broken up into
smaller parishes?

Hello Dennis,
Graudenz was a parish itself, it belonged to the Di�zese Culm. It was very
common that some villages around Graudenz belonged to this parish. If you
are interesred in details, please let me know. I will copy some information

Graudenz was part of the Culm diocese.

Hello Kurt,
     Saw your dialogue with Dennis and thought I'd ask you a question.
     In 1994 I was in Alt Christburg, Mohrungen Kreis, visiting the church
there. I've been looking for records for that church but until now I've
been unable to find them. Have you found a hint of Alt Christburg in the
Graudenz records or any of the other records that you've viewed? My BRAUN
family lived in Alt Christburg. I have looked at the available Christburg
church records thinking they may have been combined with theirs.
     Other family name for the the Alt Christburg area is Schilling.

I would not think that records for villages around Alt Christburg
would be in the Graudenz records.
