Hello,
Line #98 (Kayma Jacob) is what I need help with.
Jacob Kayma married Wilhelmina Rapien, that much I know and I understand that Gels. is short for Gelsenkirchen.
I can make out the name Gottlieb (middle name?) for Jacob's father and possibly Johan for Wilhelmina's father but, that's it.
I hope some of you lovely, smart people here on Roots can be of help to me.

The father's occupation precedes his name. The entry reads:
Wirt Gottlieb Kayma u[nd] Gottliebe Poloschek in Lelesken [i.e Lehlesken in East Prussia, now Leleszki in Poland]
?aethner Johann Rapien und Maria Wrotzeck in Gorlowken [also in East Prussia, now Gorłówko in Poland]

Thank you so much for your help!
I wonder if the spelling of the names are accurate. You never know if the person who was recording the names asked for the specific spelling or just wrote it down according to how it sounded. Either way, this is certainly a starting point.
Oh, could you tell me what Jacob's address/location is?
-
Also, I have never heard of the name Gottliebe before. I guess that is the feminine of Gottlieb? Very interesting.
-
I must admit that I had not come across the forename Gottliebe either.
The register records that Jacob was a Bergm[ann] - a miner - of Wannerstrasse 15.
I would keep an open mind on the spellings; think phonetically.
This link http://www.kreis-ortelsburg.info/076/ortsplan.htm (http://www.kreis-ortelsburg.info/076/ortsplan.htm) takes you to a sketch plan of Lehlesken, which shows the approximate locations of the houses/farms of the resident families. Kayma and Poloschek are both marked.

Thank you again for all your help and for the link.
As you said, I will keep an open mind about the spelling.
