Hammerlund in Schleswig

Jenna Smith

Hello -

I found an entry for Margarethe Koll and children on the Hamburg passenger list.

The handwriting is perfectly legible (yay!) but I cannot find Hammerlund in the Meyers Gazetteer, the Fuzzy Gazetteer, or the FamilySearch catalog. The half-siblings of these children were baptized in Tating. Any tips for finding where Hammerlund was?

Schleswig is one of those places that has, at various times, belonged either to Denmark or Germany. Since the German gazetteers aren't helping, try some Danish ones -
