Johann "John" Traugott Lehmann was born in Neu Zicher, Königsberg, Frankfurt (Oder), Brandenburg, Prussia, which later became Suchlica, Wielkopolskie, Poland. The closest town was Zorndorf, which later became Sarbinowo, Wielkopolskie, Poland. Zorndorf/Sarbinowo is located 7.9 kilometers and 12 degrees from Küstrin, which is known today as Kostrzyn. There does not appear to have been a church in Neu Zicher/Suchlica, so any church records are most likely going to be found in Zorndorf/Sarbinowo or Zicher/Cychry.
