&lt;br /&gt;
My great-grandfather, Adam Smolinski, and his mother, Aniela Smolinska, came from Popowo and Lipno.  While researching the little I could, I noticed there are at least two, maybe three &amp;quot;Popowo&amp;quot; villages near Lipno.  While both Adam and his mother, Aniela, came to the USA, his father (her husband), Jan Smolinski, died in Poland, presumably in Lipno or Popowo.  I am trying to guess where he may be buried, but the multiple Popowo's confuse me.  Is there anyone here who is knowledgeable about these villages?  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you.&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please give me all the data you have about your ancestors. Do you knoww the years they were born? Or maybe do You know their age and years od death? Any documents???&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, thank you.  I have previously corresponded with &amp;quot;mestanton&amp;quot; and was reminded of her research.  &lt;br /&gt;
However, I recently found some interesting information that I would like to ask you about.  Shall I post it here or start a new topic?</description>
