Debbie, This is what I have, taken from a birth certificate issued in 1926. My mother was born in 1913 so this must have been sent for.Rzeczpospolita PolskaWojewodztwo L~odzkieStanoctwo KoninskieParafja Gosl~awice It then says ProboszczParafja Rzym Kat Goslawice That bit is in the center of the page. The document is divided in two with one half in Russion and one half in Polish. I don't see a church name anywhere. If you can set me on the right track, it would be great. As you can see, I have less info for my Dad's father.

In order to locate the name of the parish for Gosławice, you need to search for its web site. They are in old województwo Konin. Once I know the name of the parish village I search the internet for "parafia -----" The problem here is that the parishes for Gosławice that come up are not the one you want. Are you sure Gosławice is the parish? Debbie Irene Landenberger wrote: >> > I am picking up my Polish research after a long hiatus and am having trouble getting started.
