That depends on your service provider. Mine keeps them around for about 3 weeks. I know of some which are longer and some which are shorter. You can get close to 2 weeks off of Digital's AltaVista web site (http://www.altavista.digital.com). Choose Usenet rather than web for your search domain and search for soc.genealogy.slavic.

Hello people, I was recently given my Grandmothers naturalization Papers, at least I think thats what it is. Testimonium Nat_________e________i (a couple of stamps cover the letters) DIOECESIS: Leopoliensis ) PALATINATUS: Parnopol ) Where/what the heck is this? PAROCHIA: Kopyclynce ) DISTRICTUS: Kopyclynce ) I can pretty much ASSUME what the columns mean, NOMEN=name, PARENTES=parents. But what is PATRINI? what is COGNOMEN? & what is ET CONDITIO? In regards to column: LOCUS NATIVIT. ET N-RUS DOMUS What is Ory_zkowce 141? I am also curious as to what is actually listed under parents: (verbatim) Petzyk Jose - phus agricola h, Theodori et Marie Michalecka. - Anna B_tyk H. Joannis et Helena Kurylak. I guess they're names of people, but why so many names in this parentes column? Under PATRINI column there is: Joannes Radominski agri Maria Stel-masrcluk Sorry for my unorganised msg, can anyone help? I'd love to know my grandmothers fathers name, wouldn't that be neat? Thanks Ben

I am looking for information on this name. My ancestors are from the Belarus area, but go back further to the Swedish soldiers who fought the Russians in some war back in the 18th/19th century. My father is elderly now and its hard to get accurate info. Please contact me at 'marann@bconnex.net'. Ann

Arthur-- I don't know if I have written you before, but I saw your email posted on genslav and thought I should tell you about the PGS of CT or the PGSNE as it is also called. The Polish Genealogical Society, in New Britain, CT has made the Lomza and Bialystok area something of a specialty. Many of the members' ancestors come from that area. If you are researching your ancestors, and you haven't yet contacted the Society, you really should. Their address: 8 Lyle Road New Britain, CT 06053 Phone: 203-223-5596 Hope this helps...

Well, he needs to give more information, right? How about me, no one has answered mine, but I'm not sure I asked, the origin of Pelvan? I can find it no where in the Slovakia telephone, or any of the records I've looked at. Could it be Jewish? The Mormon center I visited last didn't have any of the records I needed. Going to try a larger one because I know the name has been researched, and if no luck, will have to spend months and time ordering.

I would be interested in your surname search. My grandparents came from Lomza, Poland. They immigrated in about 1906. My grandfather faught in the Russo Japanese War under Czar Nicholas II's army.

Like the one I was looking at for the year 1955, it was just as Will had recently described, a sudden onslaught the very first day of August in the middle of summer heat, tapering off the last few weeks of August, and disappearing with the November frost.

It means a hut of a agricultural worker. The inhabitants of "Katen" are the "Kaetner". During my holidays I live in a modernized Kate in Bargfeld, Lower Saxony. (Look below!)

Searching for HUDACKO ancestors from Presov and Kocise area. Most of family seems traceable to a village halfway between, Drienov (formerly Somos, Saros Megye).
