Here's a very interesting web site which not only identifies the graves in a Polish cemetery, it also locates them in the cemetery! This is a lot of work! There are about 70 cemeteries on this web site though I haven't been able to figure out how to find the other cemeteries. Check out the Chodziez (famous for beautiful porcelain) cemetery: http://www.polskie-cmentarze.com/chodziez/grobonet/start.php?id=wyniki&name=rutkowski&x=0&y=0 You can search for individual names (you don't need diacritical marks) here: http://www.polskie-cmentarze.com/chodziez/grobonet/start.php?id=form An explanation of how this is done can be found here. It's in Polish but there are photos. This is nothing like what I do when I "read" a cemetery! LOL http://www.polskie-cmentarze.com/chodziez/grobonet/start.php?id=wyniki&name=rutkowski&x=0&y=0 Debbie

Thank you, Eveline. Your post reminded me that I had a link to Powazki Cemetery, Warsaw. I spent about a hour looking for it. Finally found it. I was able to find information about my great great aunt, Wanda Majchrycka that proved to tie her to Karol Bistram about whom I had only his name. Happy hunting, Dorothy Powazki is a very important old cemetery in Poland in which many famous Poles have been laid to rest there. This link, I am happy to say still exists.
