Dave,
Laurel,

I checked few technicalities. The domainname diecezjaplocka.pl is valid, and existing. They are using Facebook for their website:
https://www.facebook.com/DiecezjaPlocka/
On that Facebook page, you have "ContactUs" button -- I would suggest it as plan B to ask how you can contact Węgrzynowo parish.

Please: no Polish letters in email address, specifically no Węgrzynowo but Wegrzynowo, should you have that name somewhere in email.

Best,
Elzbieta

Laurel,

The screen shot with the info is from the official website of the Diocese of Plock and the info is still the same as of today. I don't know where would be a better place to look for the email address. Perhaps before writing a letter you could ask your cousin to check if the email address was typed correctly.

Dave,

My cousin tried to send an email to the address you gave me for the parish in Węgrzynowo so I could get the marriage and birth info for Franciszek Stanczak and Stefania Olszewska. The email came back as undeliverable. Before I go through the expense of snail mail from the states, could you double check the addresses you gave me, please?

Thanks so much,

Laurel,

Her death record would be in the parish where she resided at the time of her death. That would most likely be Obludzin, unless she moved elsewhere before death----possible if she was a widow at the time of her death and went to live with a child or other relative.

Good luck in your search,

Dave

Remember when you found the first born son of Franciszek and Stanislawa Abramski? I was able to find the next son, Czeslaw. All this time we thought he was born on board ship as they crossed over because of the Ellis Island records and census. It seems we were wrong. It looks like he was born in Poland but not in Szelkow, in Rozan, on the journey before leaving. He is AKT 294. I would appreciate this being translated. My cousins in Arizona will be thrilled to see an accurate record of their great-grandfather.

Elzbieta,
While I was surfing online I found another site that is like an index into the records on Metryki. Geneteka shows Leopold Abramski born 1856 Akt 4 and his brother Wojciech Marek Abramski born 1853 Akt. 37. I'm thinking that the father shown for Wojciech is the same for my Leopold. Both records are shown for Szelkow. I can't find them in Metryki. If Geneteka has them listed they should be in Metryki, right?

Can you help in finding these records or translating them, please?

Thanks,

Laurel Manning

Laurel,

It would be better to write to the parish in Polish since not all priests read and write English. You should be able to use the sample sentences found in the LDS Polish letter writing guide to ask for the information you need.

That is the death record of Andrzej Abramski. If you post it on Russian Records Translations it will be translated for you.

Best of luck,

Dave

Dave and Elzbieta,

I don't want to be rude to the parish priest but should the letter be in English or Polish?

I have a cousin who unearthed a great-great-great grandparent but I think this is Russian? Can someone on this site translate this record or do I need to go elsewhere?

I think this is a death notation for Andrjez Abramski.

Thank you so much. It's nice to know I was able to spot Aleksander. Now I think I just have to be patient and walk through the other records until I find type that looks the same.

Birth records of Franciszek & Stefania

Posted: Thu Jan 07, 2016 7:48 am

Laurel,

Based on the ages in the record Elzbieta just transted, if you look for the birth & baptism records of Franciszek (born c. 1837) and Stefania (born c. 1851) the good news is that you'll not have to deal with the Cyrillic alphabet. Civil registrations in the Russian Partition aka The Congress Kingdom of Poland (Krolestwo Polskie) were in Polish until 1868 and only after that were they in Russian. But then, of course, there is the bad news---records for those years are not online on Metryki. Then there is even worse news----the LDS films do not include those years. However, there is another way to skin that proverbial cat---you can write directly to the parish in Wegrzynowo. The contact info (including email) is on the attachment. Those records will most likely be in Latin and you'll have to depend on the good will of the priest to look up the entries, but the only way to know if things will work out favorably is to give it a try.

Wishing you success,

Dave

Dave and Elzbieta,

I can't thank you enough for finding these documents for me. I have been trying to read the long hand notes while trying to apply the alphabet and months and it's been really difficult. I tried to look for the last names but for some reason Stanczak doesn't look the same in the scans. No wonder I got lost.

I'm going to use these examples to try to find siblings of Stanislawa. So far we only know of one, her brother Aleksander born in 1891. Since there are so many years difference I'm sure there are quite a few children to find. About 12 years or so to search if not more.

If I get really good at this I might try my luck to go back another generation to find the parents of Franciszek Stanczak and Stefania Olszewska.
