Hi Everyone,
Can you please help me figure out the name of the town that Mayra (Maria) Renda was born in? She married into the Pisarski family. I am attaching 3 different USA church records which all list a different spelling for the town.

Marya Renda was born on February 18, 1880. Here parents are Jan Renda and Maria Srefler.

Thank you for your help!

Hi Trish,

It appears that the place is Duninów, which was in powiat Gostynski in gubierna Warszawska. There were three villages with that name—Duninów Duży, Duninów Stary, and Duninów Nowy. All were near the Wisła (Vistula) River. Attached is a map of powiat Gostynski from 1907.

Also. I believe her mother's maiden name was Szefler rather than Srefler.

Wishing you success,

Dave

Hi Trish,

The records for the parish of Duninów are online at Family Search. Here are links to the records of Maryanna and of two of her brothers.

Here is a link to Maryanna’s brother Jan (1886 #41) https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSL5-N3SM-F?

Hi Dave,
Wow! You are fast! You beat me to it! I just found the same record for Marianna Renda's birth. I wasn't sure if it was the correct record, however, you proved I had the right one. Thank you! Thank you also for the brother's record.

I appreciate your help!
Trish
