Hi Bill,
Hagenow and Schwerin , both now in Meckenburg Vorpommern , of which
Meckenburg - Scherin is the most western part, may have some church
records. You will not probably succeed with this first message. But I
recommend to look thru the German weg pages of www.genealogy.com . You may
get there thru my webpage, see below.
Genealogical research see homepage.
