                                      Thank you very much for this valuable information.  In researching Polish Citizenship I need also to have my grandmother's birth information.  She was born Franciszka Wilkosz on June 2, 1900.  I know her birth and baptism were also registered in the same church as her parents.  &lt;br /&gt;
My Grandfather, Mieczyslaw Koziel was born in Janiszow Poland, only a few kilometers from Barow where my grandmother was born.  His records may be at the same church as my grandmother's or at another village in that area.  His father was Antoni Koziel born in 1972   and his mother was Joanna Polat according to his marriage certificate.  If you are able to find either of their birth records, I would be very grateful.&lt;br /&gt;
Antoni may have spelled his name Koziol.  He had a brother Yan Koziol also who emigrated to the US.</description>

                                      Here are the birth records of Michal (no. 90) and Agnieszka (no. 126). You can also read Michal’s recorded date of death.&lt;br /&gt;
During the Russian Partition, the priest also served as a civil registrar. Therefore, there is no separate civil register.&lt;br /&gt;

Her parents were Michal Wilkosz who was born in Borow on September 11,1862 and Agnieszka Oczak who was born on December 28, 1969.  Her baptizmal records are at the Church in Borow, Andrew the Apostle, along with the records of all her brothers and sisters.
