Elisabeth (Polish Elżbieta) was born on October 28, 1896 in the village of Woliczka. She was baptized on October 29 in the parish of Świlcza. The family lived in house no. 21. She was the daughter of Laurentius (Polish Wawrzyniec) Miśta and Maria Misiuda.
Wawrzyniec's parents were Joannis (Polish Jan) and Agatha (Polish Agata) Hodyr.
Maria's parents were Adalbertis (Polish Wojciech) Misiuda and Ewa Cisło.

Thanks for your help, Trish!

Hi Barb,

I found a little bit of information on the family.

Per a baptismal record for their daughter, Catherine, it only stated Michael was from Galicia.

Hope this helps some.
Warm Regards,
Trish

Could they have been from Swilcza and/or Woliczka? In Radixindex, Trala is found in the former and Mista the latter. Google says the villages are 5 minutes away from each other.
