      Yes, that info I have from SGGEE. So I think that helps connect the dots

      Hello Sophi3

      The person came from Russia !!!
      Therefore, we have to look for a German settlement in the Russian Empire

      There was a settlement with the German name Kleindamm

      I struggle a bit piecing it together but I stumbled upon this link that mentions a Klein Damerau / Dąbrówka Mała and her record on SGGEE says her place of birth was Dombrowka, baptized in Tutchin parish. Could there be a connection there? Link provided below, page 114. But there many that say Dąbrówka and it may not be relevant but I appreciate the help!

      btw. right next to Tomaschow was another colony named Dabrowka. And seeing that different villages named "Damerau" were also known as Dabrowka, maybe this is the Klein Damm(erau) in question.

              I can't thank everyone enough! I am going to try and organize my thoughts and info for my great grandmother as best I can! Any further suggestions, advice etc. is appreciated!

              As SGGEE states, Mathilde was born in Dombrowka in 1893 in the Tutschin parish. Her sister, Emilie was born in Tomaschew in 1896 and as we mentioned is close to Dombrowka.

              They also have a brother Ludwig born in 1891 in Russia but I have yet to find supporting info confirming the precise location of his birth although its likely he could have also been born in one of these places.

              In 1913 Mathilde travelled to Canada and as we have figured out her place of residence at that time was likely Klein Damerau. Now I will dig deeper into these locations and hopefully more records exist!

              Thanks everyone!

                Also, I have been looking at the Meyers Gazetteer which I am fairly new to and when entering Dombrowka I get many results. With the hopes of not sounding silly, if anyone can share a little info and tips in using this site and narrowing down places to get the the right one when there are numerous results I would appreciate it!

                  Meyers lists only place names of the former German Reich (Deutsches Reich), thus, You won't find villages located in the Russian Empire or Eastern Poland.

                  And, there is another problem for you: the German village names, used by the German settlers in the Russian Empire, had often been unofficially: only used by the Germans, but neither by their Polish or Ukrainian neighbors, nor by the Russian administration.

                  Third problem: the two settlements, you mentioned, were already abandoned by the Germans during or shortly after the first World War. Or the Germans have been deported to Siberia during the war. In 1927, when the Lück map was created, the two settlements were marked with a cross, what meant the settlements has deceased
