&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are links to some sites which have records from Śliwice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&amp;amp;placeId=65507&amp;amp;query=%2Bplace%3A%22Poland%2C%20Bydgoszcz%2C%20%C5%9Aliwice%20&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&amp;amp;placeId=65507&amp;amp;query=%2Bplace%3A%22Poland%2C%20Bydgoszcz%2C%20%C5%9Aliwice%20&lt;/a&gt;(Tuchola)%22&amp;amp;subjectsOpen=348855-50&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some are able to be viewed online from the comfort of home and others have the restriction that they must be viewed at a Family History Center or affiliate library.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?op=gt&amp;amp;lang=pol&amp;amp;w=02kp&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://geneteka.genealodzy.pl/index.php?op=gt&amp;amp;lang=pol&amp;amp;w=02kp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The records indexed at the present time are Marriages 1867-1927.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://genealogiawarchiwach.pl/#query.type=INDEX&amp;amp;query.city=%25C5%259Aliwice&amp;amp;query.suggestion=false&amp;amp;query.thumbnails=false&amp;amp;query.facet=true&amp;amp;query.asc=false&amp;amp;query.sortMode=PUBLICATION&amp;amp;personTree=false&amp;amp;goComments=false&amp;amp;searcher=big&amp;amp;query.query&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://genealogiawarchiwach.pl/#query.type=INDEX&amp;amp;query.city=%25C5%259Aliwice&amp;amp;query.suggestion=false&amp;amp;query.thumbnails=false&amp;amp;query.facet=true&amp;amp;query.asc=false&amp;amp;query.sortMode=PUBLICATION&amp;amp;personTree=false&amp;amp;goComments=false&amp;amp;searcher=big&amp;amp;query.query&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Records on this site are generally not indexed (although individual record books often do contain an internal index for each year).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wishing you success in your research,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
