    You can search the FamilySearch catalog by place or keyword to find most records you seek.

    For example, I searched just on Mogilno, using the keyword search, and the top results include the Roman Catholic records from 1808 to 1874: https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/catalog/1049534

    I wasn't so lucky for Kedzierzn. Perhaps someone who speaks Polish may have better luck.

    As Áine says, on FS, start with the Catalog — but before you get to that, I suggest finding and using a gazetteer or similar reference work to verify: are there church records from both places? That is, was there a church there?

    (When such questions come up about Hungarian records, the researcher has been looking for nonexistent things about three times out of four.)

    @RichardMysliwczyk Since these places were once part of Germany you may also want to try Matricula.
