I am looking for Kiser family living (XVIII c) in Mogilno region (Prussia, then Poland) - Strelono, Szerzawy. Katarzyna Kiser, daughter of Jakub and Maria (born 1837 in Szerzawy near Mogilno, died April 18, 1896 in Blachownia near Chestochowa), widow, and her three sons: Kazimierz, Wiktor and Teodor have arrived to Blachownia near Czestochowa (then Russian /Tsar/ Empire) from Prussia in the last decade of XVIII century. They all were registered ac "Catholics". I am looking for any traces of the Katarzyna's husband: Kazimierz Kiser (he died probably before 1890 in MOgilno or Strelno at he age of 55-60). Some family legends are suggesting that he was born (1831?) as Protestant and his family name was "Kisser" (one of my unles is pretty sure that he was son of Jonathan Kisser /born 1808, son of Joseph Kisser, and Anna Stiemel/ and Eva Grünke /born 1812, daughter of Andreas Grünke,and Anna Lehmann/); then he met Katarzyna who was Catholic, and after marriage he changed both his (form Kisser to Kiser) name and religion. But this could be only a romantic legend.
