Lissau (Lisewo)

Lissau (Lisewo) is a manorial village just south of Prechlau in Kries Schlochau. Some of the very earliest Remus family records come from this village where Johan Remus the shepherd lived in the 1736 to 1750. Click here for the members of this family. Unfortunately I don’t know what happened to them after their stay in Pagelkau and Lisewo.

Here is a picture of the village:
