There are no people named Linkowski and Strynkowski in that city with listed telephone numbers. Perhaps they were from the county area near the city of Sejny. There are 11 people named Nmiotko with telephone numbers. Namiotko is the masculine spelling and Namiotka is the feminine spelling. Tina Ellis

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RdC.2ACI/6.73.1.1 Message Board Post: My great grandfather, Herschel Szymanowicz, came over from Kutno to New York in the 1890's. He had refused to go into the Russian army (at that time, service in the Russian army was usually a death sentence for a Jew) and had escaped through Germany. He was an Orthodoz Jew . He was married twice in this country and had several children. His second wife, Sarah Sorblum (originally Zaurbach) was also from Kutno. I do not know much about the Family in Poland.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RdC.2ACI/6.74 Message Board Post: Your family members have Christian names ... actually names of saints recognized by the Poles for centuries. You will only know their religious affiliation after you search for records in Poland. If they came to the US (not sure where you are), they may have Jewish names on the manifests. If not, they may have Christian names. The manifest will tell you if they were Polish or Yiddish. They may have converted to Roman Catholic, but conjecture will not determine that. Have you tried finding records in Poland? Knowing where they lived will determine in what parish or administrative district they lived. The LDS have Polish parish records on microfilm. They have all religions and civil records. Tina Ellis

It is an unusual name in this country, and not exactly common in Poland. What else do you know about this family? They were married in the RC church in Drohiczyn and children were baptized there in the late 1800's and early 1900's.

The part I wasn't clear about was: you listed Kirstein in the header as to whom you were looking for. I didn't see any Kirstein in the genealogy though; perhaps it's a different branch unrelated to the Podlaskie board? I'm not sure about the email part of this; I'm posting from the local lds/fhc.
