birth: 1833-01-09
father: Schade, Johannes Nicolaus (birth 1800-10-05 same location)

Thanks!

Might be worth having a look here: https://familysearch.org/catalog/search , typing in Eichsfeld brings up some matches, not sure if they are relevant to you? Some of these records may be on-line (it will tell you if you follow the lnks through). If not on-line, but they do have records of interest  to you, you would have to hire them in to an LDS centre (assuming you have one relatively near) so you can have a look.

I searched there before and didn't make the connection with the renaming due to political changes.  This just might be the ticket.  Looks like I might get to read (or look at, more accurately) a bit of Polish along the way!

Thanks for the suggestion!
