    1. Re: [GALICIA] Can't Find Information

    3. Hi All, It has been a while since I updated my findings, but here is where I am at now. It appears as if the correct spelling of my grandmother’s maiden name was “Winnicki” if the majority rules. I found many mid-1830-1870 records for Hladki and most had that spelling. Her mother’s family name, Halian, was pretty much consistent. Having found these records, I was encouraged, but the Hladki records end in 1866. Czerniechów records don’t go any further. Since Plotycz records show only a couple people with one of the family name, so it looks as if she was Greek Catholic. My problem now is finding any records from 1866 through 1910. Using the Austrian army topographical maps, I checked Family History Center films for other churches in the area, but haven’t found anything with later records. My grandmother was born May 7, 1900, but I can’t find anything close to that time. LDS has Czerniechów Hariachs’ka Church and Hospital’s’ka Church, are these worth looking into? Any other suggestions? I still have hopes of identifying her uncle who was a bishop put to death by the Nazis; he was either a Winnicki or Halian. Thanks, John
