Thank you for responding.

Children's births? I see a Philadelphia Marriage License #339366 in 1916 for a Joseph PokrUpski and a Marianna Chepkowski on Family Search. However, they say their cut-off on film is 1915 and for 1916 you need to write to Philadelphia or get someone to go in and get it for you. PolishDragon@att.net

Hi Sunny, In order to better assist you, I think we need more information on what records you're looking for, and what you've already found .  Did you find your Pokropskis in the census in Philadelphia?  Do you know who their children were?  What religion were they?  Have you found a passenger record for them?  All of those bits of information will help you refine your search.  For example, if you find a ship's manifest with both their names on it, it's a good bet that they got married in Poland rather than the U.S.  If they got married in Philly, there's probably a civil marriage record for them out there somewhere, maybe in the county court building, and probably a religious marriage record for them as well .  Usually it's good to find as much information about your family in America as possible, and then finding them in Mlawa is a lot easier.  Julie ----- Original Message ----- From: "sunny" <sunny3141@comcast.net> To: poland-roots@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, November 1, 2012 1:09:12 PM Subject: Re: [POLAND] POLAND-ROOTS Digest, Vol 7, Issue 218 Thank you for responding.
