This week was no different. Our "Polish Genealogy" sign attracts people who want to see what we have to offer in the Wotta Building. A visitor asked about her ancestral village - Łazy Dębowieckie - a village in southern Poland. Small world! It is part of the same parish my grandmother Zdziebko hails from and we were there in September. Another researcher wanted to know about a surname which has the root word Ryba (fish). His ancestral village is located near a lake - Jezioro Pakoskie. It made me think of this painting by Leon Wyczółkowski. http://www.pinakoteka.zascianek.pl/Wyczolkowski/Images/Rybak_niosacy_raki.jp g Ceil www.polishmission.com ********************************* Need to contact the list manager?
