Tina, and Debbie, thanks for your help. I knew that LDS filmed in Sejny, but wasn't sure if the Nowosady people attended church there. I'll check LDS and also write to the church.

The diocese was in L~omz~a: http://www.kuria.lomza.pl/ Today, the parish of Sejny is in El~k diocese but this won't help you unless you are looking for records _since_ 1992. Anything prior to that will be found in the diocese of L~omz~a. Here's the parish web site just for grins: http://www.sejny.kuria.elk.pl/ This page lists all of the diocese in Poland as well as the Eparchy (Greek Catholic) diocese in Poland: http://www.opoka.org.pl/struktury_kosciola/diecezje/index.html Debbie Tina Ellis wrote: > According to the Slownik, it is one word, Nowosady, and the parish was Sejny.

It seems that their is not a lot of info out there for this area. Also (in the early 1900's) would this be in Sejny Diocese? > > Thanks, > Deb > ********************************* Need to contact the list manager?
