Thank you for your responses. I received an e-mail from Bialystok city archives. They needed me to prove ancestry. I e-mailed scans of my great-grandmother's birth record and great-great-grandparents' marriage record. I hope that will satisfy their requirement. They did not answer my question on how much the documents will cost or what information is posted to the documents. It will be interesting.

Hmmm ... It seems to me they would want the proof to begin with yourself going back in your lineage to the person's record you want. It looks like you may have skipped a few generations going back to the person's whose record you want.
