In this part of Poland most records are in Latin before 1807 (but varies from parish to parish). From 1808 to about 1868, they were in Polish. From about 1868 to the end of WWI, they were in Russian. After WWI, they reverted back to Polish. In Wysokie Mazowieckie, the LDS list these parishes: Jablonka Koscielna, Jablonka Swierczewo and Jablon Koscielna. http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=localityhitlist&columns=*%2C180%2C0&PLACE=Jablon&PARTOF=&prePLACE=Jablon&prePARTOF= The archives in Lomza has the same three. The ones named as Jablonka Koscielna and Jablon Koscielna are the same church. Hope some of this helps you.
