Locating Catholic church records
Zoppot/Sopot, Neustadt, Danzig, Prussia. Meyers Gazetteer list that there was a Catholic church in the town. I have checked Family Search catalog, GenBaza, and Polish State Archives and have not found the catholic church records. Can you help me locate these?
I am also interested in the neighboring parish of Koliebken/ Kolibki, I see a few surviving records on F.S. is that the only location of online/FHC availability?
Many thanks for your help!

Angela, if you search in metryki.genbaza.pl for Sopot, you will find there civil office records from 1874-1908-1920. Those records will include Roman Catholic records.
ptg.gda.pl recently changed the format, but maybe you will be able to figure it out, as you may search there for Sopot.
You may be interested in searching in familysearch.org for Koliebken where they have Catholic records from 1711-1929. I hope you will find there some of your ancestors.
