I am doing research on The Las Family.
My great grandfather was Wojciech Las ( L has / and the s has a ' above it )
Wojciech was born about 1859 in Lesnica, in the administrative district of Gmina Bukowina Tatrzańska, Malopolska, Poland.
His parents were Jan Las and Marianna Gorz.

He was married to Regina Zarebczan in the village of Gronkow. on the 23 Feb 1886.
I would like to know where I can find the parish records for Lesnica?

Thank you
Mary

Mary,
Here is Leśnica in Małopolskie Province on the contemporary map: https://goo.gl/maps/denbLh4RSTM2. Before 1950's it belonged to the parish in Szaflary.
The records might be available in the parish or in Diocese Archive in Kraków http://www.diecezja.pl/kuria/archiwum.html
