Since 1844 , descendants of ZWIRZ families, who used to live in Samotschin , for a first time are documented in records of the Protestant Church of Lindenwerder in Posen (today Lipia Gora , located in Poland ) as residents of a small nearby village called Liepe (today Lipa ). Ludwig   August ZWIRZ and his descendants are working as farmers, setting up an own business as master butchers. In 1870/71, three sons of the family, Friedrich   Wilhelm , Carl   Ludwig and Hermann   August ZWIRZ emmigrate from Liepe to North America. While two of their sisters already had moved to the western part of Prussia in the 1880‘s, those families still living in Liepe have to leave their property, which as a result from WWII had become Polish territory, to also settle down in post-war Germany. Accordingly, the latest currently known record of a member of the ZWIR T Z families can be found in a death register in 1941 . Today, the formerly family-owned house with the butchery still does exist in Lipa . All bearers of the family name documented by the Protestant Church of Lindenwerder are evidently members of the ZWIR T Z families in focus.
