Debbie, you are right. Sharon, I think it will have to be "3rd time luck" You sent us data for Francisca Drozd while the image is for Franciscus Balwirczak. ...
Here's a few points. Latin, like Polish (and many other languages) has declentions and cases. That means that different endings give words different meanings....
I am not certain if Judith R. Frazin's group gives examples of church records, but for those having difficulty with civil records... "A Translation Guide to...

In this week's issue of Newsweek (Aug. 4) is a short article in the "Periscope" section titled, "Telling American Tales." The article is about a project...
There's also this Web site which I'd have passed along to Sharon along with the records if I'd been thinking: http://www.halgal.com/birthrecord.html It is a...
Sharon, I don't think you have the translation quit right and this would lead to problems in research. The first number, way to the left (8) represents the 8th...
... I'd have concluded the same had I not seen a lot more of these records, but I feel confident that this name begins with a B. Another BT name I know is...
Thanks Philip. The site, http://www.halgal.com/birthrecord.html, that you recommended is very good. I got a lot out of it. Debbie, I agree that those...
Jackson, Comments, huh? Aw, you're right. Thanks for pointing that out. Believe it or not, I usually do the same as you. Sloppy this time. Sorry Sharon and...

Sharon Jan has already given you a web site where you see a map of the 1990 provinces with their abbreviation. But if you click on the words " Tutaj znajduja...
Sharon I am still learning too. Just found out that if you click on the words " Zobacz mape " in the pop up box, you will get the map that Jan told you about....
... For sure, but it will be hard to puzzle out. I have very little info on the Burnats and there were/are a *lot* of Drozds in the area. FYI the name means...
Jack and Sharon, Fred Hoffman wrote a tutorial about using the Dom Polonii site for the Rymut information. You can read about it here. I'm sure Fred mentions ...
Pilip, I think you are right. Looking at the way the "x" is written in "uxor", it does become apparent that it says "Textor" - weaver, which makes more sense. ...
I plan to add the list below to my Bukowsko Shtetlink site at: http://www.shtetlinks.jewishgen.org/bukowsko/ The list I am posting are the names of those who...
Debbie, Thank you for taking the time to do this and for passing on the Auschwitz site with a list of those Bukowsko residents who died in Auschwitz. Although...
Debbie, Just for the heck of it I compared the two lists of Jews who were killed and noticed that, for example, Etel Schiff, Markus Israel Rebhun and Mojzis...
You are right, and I think this is based on the difference in how the lists were compiled. For Yad Vashem a person has to fill out what is called a "Page of...
Carol, I think everyone is! ;) Just kidding but there are quite a few of us and I am one. I've been keeping track of the folks who have contacted me with ties...
