Unknown; family story is that she was English and her mother lived in Leeds, but how someone from that backgound ended up married to a German sailor I don't know! Her son William was born in Ustka, Germany in 1854 so she must have been born roughly 1810 -1834

Not really got any ideas, but the alternative name for the place seems to be spelt Stolpmünde and is now in Poland.

Thanks for looking, Kite. I think the town is one of those places that's swapped countries several times.
