Thank you to everyone who has contributed! This is so much more than I expected!
It's good to finally have some clarity about the location being Pitschen, Kreuzburg, Oppeln, Schlesien, Preussen

Fiddlerclass: Thanks for the link to the history of Pitschen. I'll have to try translate it, but that's a great find. Especially interesting mentioning the Ziegeleri too. Like his father Wilhelm, the son Wilhelm Emil Oskar Rosenblatt also became a Ziegelmeister.

davecapps: I've never been able to find the birth record, so this is a bonus! Thank you! I'm now learning to navigate the https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/strona_glowna website in the hope I might discover other family members too. I will try to find a death records, as I believe both his parents were deceased before he married in 1873. There was a brother born abt. 1854. I don't know if he has any other siblings.

Not sure? I'm going through the Pitschen records now, so I'll look out for a Adolph Rudolph Rosenblatt.
