Posted: Fri Jan 26, 2018 2:05 pm Post subject: Village of Opacionka

Opacionka is the place my Great grandparents emmigrated from.
Are there any of Jan Lukowicz's (birth 1858-1861)family or Victoria Budzich's (birth 1867) Family still there?What is the history of that region? What was life like from 1858 till 1902 when they lived there? What church would they have gone to? Are there any Photographs from that time?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Joy

Hi Joy,

The attachment from the Skorowidz… shows that the R.C. parish for Opacionka is in Brzostek. The church is under the title of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. A picture of the church, which was constructed from 1812 through 1818, and the contact info can be found at http://www.diecezja.rzeszow.pl/2015/04/brzostek-2/

You might check Family Search & the Polish Archives for any records available online before contacting the parish directly, although a quick check of the archives lists vital records for the years 1890-1910 with nothing online.

Wishing you success in your research,

Dave
