Lossiny, Kreis Tuchel,
West Prussia
Lossiny is a very small village next to Okiersk (an important
village for the Michael Remus One family of Pollnitz) on the
Napoleon Strasse (road in German) a few kilometers
east of Tuchel.
There were many Remus families in this village who
related to the Remus families in Okiersk and the Remus families in Lubierszin. It appears that Lossiny
had available land suitable for farming and was well located so as to keep the
families together.
The David Remus family from Lubierszin
lived in this village; he is shown as the head of family 7 in this report on the Johan Remus and
Susanna Abram family. All of the following of David's children lived in Lossiny. Carl August Remus and
his wives Caroline Kirchoff and later Emilie Frase are family 19. Lorenz Musolph
and his wife Rosalie Remus are family 20; you can
contact Felizitas theancestree@gmail.com for more on
this family. Johan Remus and Emilie nee Remus are family 21. Carl Kirshstein
and Emilie Auguste Remus
are family 22.
