Ratzlaffs of Przechowko II

The next youngest grandson of the original Ratzlaff, Adam 36111, was born in 1700 and died in 1758.  His male descendant chart from the Przechowko Churchbook:


Hinrich 47662, 1727-1747, probably no children
not likely, died at age 20








Ernst 47664, 1733-1739









Adam 47663, 1730-1748









Adam 47669, 1754-1764









Jacob 47670, 1757-1776








Adam 36111


Benjamin 47892, 1800-1802



Peter 47881
Andreas 17893, 1800-1801




Peter 47891, born 1798 Jeziorka, no children listed
not likely, dates not right







Benjamin 47843, 1780-1785



Peter 33043





Adam 47882, 1784-1803









Benjamin Peter 47884, 1791-1874, died in Nebraska
Benjamin 29201, b 1827 in the Molotschna, d 1897 in California














Henry 95310, probably died young
not likely, probably no children


Benjamin 47716, b 1775, Przechowka
Benjamin 47696, 1811-1814




Peter 107085, 1815-1815







Benjamin 47666





Heinrich 47715, 1792-1796









Peter 47717, b 1783, lived in Dorposch, no children listed









Hans 47718, 1788-1813, Przechowka.  Probably no children.  No spouse listed
not likely, probably no children




From Adam’s descendants, there are no real good candidates to be my Ratzlaff ancestor.  Peter 47891, born 1798, could possibly have had a child named Heinrich and a grandchild (Jacob) by the year 1842, but I don’t feel that’s very likely.  Henry 95310 probably died young without any children, but we don’t know that for sure.  Neither Peter 47717 nor Hans 47718 probably had any children.  Geographically, there’s no mention of any of these Ratzlaffs living in the Neumark villages and only one, Benjamin 29201, ended up in the Molotschna Colony.  I just don’t feel like any of these Ratzlaffs are very likely to be my Ratzlaff ancestor.
