                                      Thank you. I will do that. I will ask her if she has an email. It would be much easier to email this info, rather then spell everything out over the phone.  And thank you for the info on when the marriage took place, I didn't notice that before, so I guess it is partially my fault I ended up with the wrong record.</description>

&lt;br /&gt;
The bad news is that it is the wrong marriage record but the good news is that the priest did enter the name of the parish as well as the name of the diocese when the parish was located for this record.  If he entered the same detailed info in the record you want you should be well on your way to locating the place of origin in Poland.  Perhaps the person who located the record is not familiar with Polish surnames as well the Latin version of given names.  Additional confusion may be due to the date.  The license was ISSUED on February 3, but the marriage ceremony TOOK PLACE on February 9 so you should mention the date of the wedding to help make things easier for  the person who is looking up the record.  Perhaps you should also spell out the Latin versions of their given names.  The Latin version of Boleslaw is Boleslaus and the Latin for Mary will be either Maria or Marianna.  However, since the names in the record are found in a sentence the name Boleslaw (Boleslaus) will appear as BOLESLAUM and Mary will appear either as MARIAM or as MARIANNAM.  Inclusion of those details with your request should make the chances of getting the correct record better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The record you received is for the marriage of Vincent (Wincenty in Polish) Sowinski and Eve/Eva (Ewa in Polish) Szernak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hopefully, the second request will be the charm.&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Thank you. I did contact them, I have a record sent to me, but I think they sent me wrong one. Attached is record I received. Although I think it is the wrong one (I don't see Maluchnik or soloski names anywhere).  I'd say wrong one, right? I hope they aren't annoyed about sending another, I did even spell the surnames out for her as she was having trouble with them.</description>

&lt;br /&gt;
One of the limitations of a Google search is that some info is out of date---like the contact info for St. Hyacinth.  A little more searching came up with info that St. Hyacinth and other ethnic parishes in Monessen were merged into the parish of the Epiphany of Our Lord.  Here is their contact info.  If the sacramental records of St. Hyacinth are not housed there, I'm sure they can tell you the correct location.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Good luck in your search.&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Thank you, dnowicki. I will try that. When I googled them before, no contact info came up. I thought they didn't exist anymore. But, I will try number you gave. If they send me it I will give a 10 dollar donation (unless they charge).  Thank you for the other info as well. Also, her obit mentions a polish national alliance lodge 1146 in it. Not sure what that is, but when I googled them it had said they shut down. Hopefully getting some records on her will be more useful then the records of her brothers.</description>

&lt;br /&gt;
It may be worth your while to contact St. Hyacinth parish and ask for either a photo copy or a complete transcription of all the information in the parish marriage register for the Sokolski-Maluchnik marriage.  (A photo copy would be best, if the parish is willing to send one.)  Usually data about the birth/baptism of the parties is found in the register and since the priest was Polish, the spellings of locations should be accurate.  There are no guaranties about exactly what information the priest entered in the register, but baptismal data is usually a good bet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Polish Genealogical Society of America (pgsa.org) lists Boleslaw Sokolski as a member of a parish society in the 1959 parish jubilee book.  For a fee a copy of the page of the book can be ordered from the PGSA, if you are interested in having a copy. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These are just a couple on non-internet avenues which may be worth exploring.&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Thank you both once again.  Good to know their is a way to tell whats indexed and whats not, saves a lot of time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Magroski, thank you for finding that record, and Elzbieta  thank you for translating, but unfortunately I don't think that's mine  Mine should be born January 10, 1894. According to her marriage license anyway. Have not found her death cert, yet though. Will see if I can find that. It may not be coming up easily because Sokolski gets mispelled so often. There are definitely other Maryanna Maluchnik's of close age arriving right around the year mine does. When I searched before I counted at least 3 others. To add to the confusion there are also quite  a few Stanley Maluchnik's of similar age too. So, I don't know if those are my Stanley's parents, or not. It seems every Maluchnik was named Stanley or Maryanna or Anton. I guess they were common names. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 I have been manually going through censuses and ship records looking for some clues or something to link the Alexandra with the Frank to mine, as well as seeing if theres anything I missed before. Well, there is one more record, which I will upload. When I google the location gubernia Pinsk, it comes up with Belarus???! Should I start looking outside of Poland and in Belarus, or would that be crazy? I've uploaded it, let me know what you think. I've also uploaded Maryanna's marriage cert, so you can see her birthday is definitely January 10th. This is definitely my Maryanna Maluchnik, she is mentioned by her married name in the obit for their brother August.</description>

Geneteka index database is being constantly updated. If you select, for instance, mazowieckie and then the first place, Andrzejewo, you will see it displays &amp;quot;Andrzejewo - U - 1808-1826&amp;quot;. However, when you scroll down the menu and click on Andrzejewo U 1808-1826 you can see read &amp;quot;Lata: 1808-15,26&amp;quot;, which means the years 1816-1825 were not indexed. In cases like that, I go either to Metryk, or Poczekalnia, or ZoSIA to check if these Geneteka-missing-years are available.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are lots of Maluchnik in mazowieckie and warminsko-mazurskie provinces. If you take a look in a map you will notice that villages in both provinces are not that far from each other. In my opinion, it strongly suggests the Maluchniks move from one area to another. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could read the age of Antoni and Karolina in that marriage record. He was 40 y.o. (and she was 2&lt;img src=&quot;images/smiles/icon_cool.gif&quot; alt=&quot;Cool&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;, therefore born about 1848. I then looked from 1845 to 1850 and could not find Antoni's birth record. However, I found a  birth record for Maryanna, in 1890. &lt;a href=&quot;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/metryka.php?ar=17&amp;amp;zs=0635d&amp;amp;sy=1890&amp;amp;kt=1&amp;amp;plik=139-140.jpg#zoom=3&amp;amp;x=227&amp;amp;y=2172&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/metryka.php?ar=17&amp;amp;zs=0635d&amp;amp;sy=1890&amp;amp;kt=1&amp;amp;plik=139-140.jpg#zoom=3&amp;amp;x=227&amp;amp;y=2172&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Thank you again Gilberto. I think Janowo is the parish it's in. One question I have, and I don't know if you or anyone would know the answer or not. But I have been wondering about this, Well as you know  the site search here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?rid=B&amp;amp;from_date=1879&amp;amp;to_date=1899&amp;amp;search_lastname=maluchnik&amp;amp;search_lastname2=&amp;amp;rpp2=50&amp;amp;rpp1=0&amp;amp;bdm=50&amp;amp;w=07mz&amp;amp;op=gt&amp;amp;exac=&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?rid=B&amp;amp;from_date=1879&amp;amp;to_date=1899&amp;amp;search_lastname=maluchnik&amp;amp;search_lastname2=&amp;amp;rpp2=50&amp;amp;rpp1=0&amp;amp;bdm=50&amp;amp;w=07mz&amp;amp;op=gt&amp;amp;exac=&lt;/a&gt;  a lot of Maluchnik's come up. My question is it appears most, if not all of the Zembrus/Zaramby ones, as well as some from other parishes, have been indexed. My question is, do you or does anyone else know how complete this site is on their indexing? Just wondering, because it is odd if most are indexed that all of mine missed the index. And I did check years before and after in the index pages for them in Zembrus, Mokry Grunt so far and while I saw some Maluchnik's none appear to be mine.  I still have to check the other Zembrus, etc which is why I wanted to ask about the indexing.</description>

                                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                                      Thank you again Magroski. I will try to find the pawlow records and take a look at more parishes in that area too. One thing I'm confused on is if they were born elsewhere and immigrated to Zembrus/Zaramy or whatever, then why are their so many Maluchnik's already in those parishes. It doesn't seem like there are many elsewhere when I search. Are all of polands birth records online?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 I don't know if that's the couple I'm looking for or not. Only one record of all the ones I have mentions a mothers name. It is Carolina Krosky on Stanley's marriage cert (and his father is Anton on it). On Anton's death cert it has mother as unknown, father as Anton. And August's death cert has both parents as unknown. Maybe I am wrong on this being my Alexandra Maluchnik here: (age is off, but on the actual census page you can see age is smudged off) however arrival year does match the year my August arrived on ship with sister Alexandra heading to father Frank. Unfortunately I've been unable to find more records of this Alexandra and her father. &lt;a href=&quot;https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MVMW-7LJ&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MVMW-7LJ&lt;/a&gt; Of course other option is that both the Alexandra and August Maluchnik on the manifest aren't siblings of mine, but arrival year also matches August's census arrival year which I know for a fact is him based off his obit which mentions where he lived, which mentions my ancestor Stanley as his brother along with garden city, NY (so I know it's mine).  I just don't see why the father would be Anton on some records and most ship manifests and Frank in census and another ship manifest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is also a record of a Jan Maluchnik being born here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/metryka.php?ar=17&amp;amp;zs=0635d&amp;amp;sy=1888&amp;amp;kt=1&amp;amp;plik=045-046.jpg#zoom=1&amp;amp;x=1383&amp;amp;y=1267&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/metryka.php?ar=17&amp;amp;zs=0635d&amp;amp;sy=1888&amp;amp;kt=1&amp;amp;plik=045-046.jpg#zoom=1&amp;amp;x=1383&amp;amp;y=1267&lt;/a&gt; with father Antoni Maluchnik and Karolina Napałowska, but given the lack of finding birth records for ones I know are mine and the difference in mothers surname I just cannot confirm these are the ones I'm looking for. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dnowick, thank you. I will check surrounding years, you may be very right on that. Would explain a lot of why I cannot find them. I think I'll start with checking the Janowo parish ones as that is where the Antoni Maluchnik and Karolina Napalowska record is. Will update if I find any Maluchnik's in those years, as I cannot seem to make out the first names in the records nearly as well.</description>

                                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This is a strong possibility, since we can't find them in Zembrzus or in nearby parishes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;table width=&quot;90%&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;3&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;tr&gt; 	  &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;genmed&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lyn1982 wrote:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;	&lt;tr&gt;	  &lt;td class=&quot;quote&quot;&gt; What are the parishes next closest to these ones that I should be checking next? &lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides those I mentioned, also Pawlow Koscielne. You should also look at this parishes map in that area.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mapadiecezjiplockiej.bl.ee/Mapa-PL/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.mapadiecezjiplockiej.bl.ee/Mapa-PL/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;table width=&quot;90%&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;3&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;tr&gt; 	  &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;genmed&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lyn1982 wrote:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;	&lt;tr&gt;	  &lt;td class=&quot;quote&quot;&gt;Or, is it likely their parents for whatever reason didn't register their births?&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I don't think so.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;table width=&quot;90%&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;3&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;tr&gt; 	  &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;genmed&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lyn1982 wrote:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;	&lt;tr&gt;	  &lt;td class=&quot;quote&quot;&gt; ...is living with a father Frank Maluchnik in 1920...&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I remember to have seen records where the father was Franciszek.&lt;br /&gt;
By the way, a Franciszek Maluchnik married Anna Kraska (your Kroski?) in Zareby in 1877. That was five years before August was born, so maybe it was the couple. However, I have checked Franciszek and Anna's birth records to check if they had a second name: no, they didn't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;table width=&quot;90%&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;3&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;tr&gt; 	  &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;genmed&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lyn1982 wrote:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;	&lt;tr&gt;	  &lt;td class=&quot;quote&quot;&gt;  Would they legally at that time have been allowed to not record the births? And did polish people if they were close with their families often name their cousins as sister/brother in obituaries?&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry, I don't have answer to these two last questions.</description>

&lt;br /&gt;
Another possibility which should not be discarded out of hand is that perhaps the days and months of birth in secondary sources are correct but not the years.  For some reason people used different years in later records instead of their actual year of birth and then those false years come to be regarded as Gospel and become self-perpetuating.  Growing up we lived in the same house with my maternal grandparents and I always was told by my grandmother herself that she was born on October 13, 1885 in Retkowo and was baptized in the parish of Brzyskorzystew.  I'm guilty of contributing to that date appearing on her death certificate---no denying it---my signature appears on the certificate as the informant.  When I searched for her birth record I was dismayed that her birth was not to be found in the parish baptismal register for October of 1885---or for any other month in 1885.  She was born on October 13 but of 1884 and not 1885 and that is where I found her birth and baptismal entry.  So perhaps it may be good to look in the surrounding years for the birth records you need before looking in other parishes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just a suggestion....&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Magroski, thank you very much for looking. I really appreciate it! I looked numerous times, but was worried I was being incompetent and misreading it.  And I did look in Janowo too, that is the Zembrus I linked in my original post, unless I am mistaken. This is so odd. I have draft registrations and death certs and even a marriage cert mentioning  birthdays. I am sure they were born then. My first thought is they were born elsewhere and their parents migrated with them when they were young. What are the parishes next closest to these ones that I should be checking next? Or, is it likely their parents for whatever reason didn't register their births? I have found some very odd stuff while researching. Like obituary mentioning them all is siblings, yet upon researching their seems to be two different fathers, both Maluchnik. Which wouldn't be so odd if one wasn't leaving a father in Poland on their manifest and the other heading to a different named father in US on theirs. And I have Antoni's and Stanleys father as Antoni on Antoni Jrs death cert and Stanleys marriage cert yet in census August's sister who arrived with him is living with a father Frank Maluchnik in 1920, same as the one they are both heading to on the ship.  So, I'm really eager to finally find some birth certificates to sort this mess out.  Would they legally at that time have been allowed to not record the births? And did polish people if they were close with their families often name their cousins as sister/brother in obituaries?</description>

So the records for   Czernice Borowe wouldn't be with the Przasnysz ones here?  &lt;a href=&quot;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/ar6-zs0104d&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/ar6-zs0104d&lt;/a&gt;  Thats unfortunate.  How odd they aren't online when it seems most of Poland's records are.&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lyn &amp;amp; others,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Czernice Borowe online records in Poczekalnia: from 1826 to 1912.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://poczekalnia.genealodzy.pl/pliki/AP-Mlawa/Czernice_Borowe_numeruje_RP/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://poczekalnia.genealodzy.pl/pliki/AP-Mlawa/Czernice_Borowe_numeruje_RP/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gilberto&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P.S. Could not find them in Zembrzus, Czernice Borowe, Zareby, Grudusk, Wegra.&lt;br /&gt;
Looked for August 1882, Antoni 1885, Stanislaw 1892, Maryanna 1894.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P.S. 2: I have noticed that most of Maluchnik appear either in mazowieckie or in warminsko-mazurkie. These ones are in Janowo parish. And Janowo is not that far from a place named Zembrzus-Mokry Grunt.</description>

&lt;br /&gt;
The parish for Zembrzus (Zembrzus Wielki for the one near Przasnysz, more than one Zembrzus in Poland) is Czernice Borowe, with very old church&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parafia_%C5%9Bw._Stanis%C5%82awa_BM_w_Czernicach_Borowych&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parafia_%C5%9Bw._Stanis%C5%82awa_BM_w_Czernicach_Borowych&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zembrzus in old geography book, community Chojnowo, parish Czernice&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://dir.icm.edu.pl/Slownik_geograficzny/Tom_XIV/570&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://dir.icm.edu.pl/Slownik_geograficzny/Tom_XIV/570&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I do not see records on line, but geneteka shows a number of Maluchnik in Czernice Borowe&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?rid=3864&amp;amp;from_date=&amp;amp;to_date=&amp;amp;search_lastname=Maluchnik&amp;amp;search_lastname2=&amp;amp;rpp2=50&amp;amp;rpp1=0&amp;amp;bdm=50&amp;amp;w=07mz&amp;amp;op=gt&amp;amp;exac=1&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?rid=3864&amp;amp;from_date=&amp;amp;to_date=&amp;amp;search_lastname=Maluchnik&amp;amp;search_lastname2=&amp;amp;rpp2=50&amp;amp;rpp1=0&amp;amp;bdm=50&amp;amp;w=07mz&amp;amp;op=gt&amp;amp;exac=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

                                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                                      Lyn~  If you search your first record source (where you looked for Zembrus) for Przasnysz you get this result &lt;a href=&quot;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/pow-266&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/pow-266&lt;/a&gt;  Many records for Przasnysz and some for Zaręby (pronounced Zaremby) which is north of Przasnysz.  I agree with Elzbieta (and she is the expert) that in Maryanna's record the town is Zembrzus.  Not sure where records from Zembrzus Wielki would be - Przasnysz or another town.  It's also close to Grudusk whose records are here &lt;a href=&quot;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/pow-97.&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/pow-97.&lt;/a&gt;  Looks like this is Russian Partition so records are probably in Cyrillic.  Good luck.  ~PL&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PS I just looked in the 1894 records for Zaręby - Sku 01 (maybe index page) and found a Maluchnik on the image (righthand page, #44, not written in Cyrillic) here's the link to the image &lt;a href=&quot;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/metryka.php?ar=6&amp;amp;zs=0103d&amp;amp;sy=1893&amp;amp;kt=1&amp;amp;plik=SkU-01.jpg#zoom=1&amp;amp;x=2274&amp;amp;y=2100&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://metryki.genealodzy.pl/metryka.php?ar=6&amp;amp;zs=0103d&amp;amp;sy=1893&amp;amp;kt=1&amp;amp;plik=SkU-01.jpg#zoom=1&amp;amp;x=2274&amp;amp;y=2100&lt;/a&gt;  I have no experience in these records, so I don't know how you should proceed.
