Your thoroughness is great. The links were things I did not know. It is great you took the time to direct many of us. I love this board....Although very rarely anything pertains to my family, I read all the postings and pick up alot of tidbits. I check out the contributor's name and find myself marveling how unselfish the many "regulars" are with their knowledge and TIME. You all are appreciated! Claudia Linda, I trust you do not mind my posting this to the list, just in case anyone else is unfamiliar with some of the workings of the FHC. Once you have identified a film you wish to order from the library catalogue http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp you can order it from your FHC. In some cases they may already hold the film - unlikely for Przedezc unless someone else is also interested in this place. (If so it would be good to discover who they are...) The staff will usually suggest that you check the inventory of films they currently hold. Most of the films I order take months and months to arrive (I'm in the UK) so be prepared for something of a wait. When the film arrives there is a time limit (usually four weeks, but extendable) for reading it. You cannot take it away with you but will use one of the FHCs film readers. I believe most FHCs are happy with you taking digital photos of entries; usually there is also the facility to have them copied on paper or as digital images. You have probably noticed that the films will be in Polish or Russian (Cyrillic). http://www.esisnet.com/~jackbowmanstc/poltrans.htm will give you an idea of what you will be looking at. With Polish you should still recognise your names. Cyrillic is used from 1868 to the end of WWI - after a time many of the names are written in both Cyrillic and Russian script. This Russian alphabet page will help you immensely http://www.esisnet.com/~jackbowmanstc/russian.htm when needing to transliterate surnames from Cyrillic to Polish. Do also take at look at publications by Shea and Hoffman which explain pretty much everything you will need to know! http://www.langline.com/ esp publications. I'm sure you will have many more questions, and good luck with your searches. Bronwyn. Thanks Tina, Andre, and Bronwyn! I have seen the reference to the microfilms of the Przedezc parishes on the LDS site but didn't know how to go about actually viewing the mircofilms. I do have an LDS center near me but I wasn't sure if all the sites had the same microfilms available or if they could be ordered somewhere. What do you think is the best way to go about seeing these microfilms?

I went through this one too fast. Andre is correct. I did not go far enough down on the list at the LDS catalog. That's because the Z has a diacritical mark,and those are listed at the end after the places starting with the regular Z. http://www.genpol.com/Katalog_Zasobow_Metrykalnych-parafia_10415.html The LDS has the microfilmed list indexed at this site: http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=769854&disp=Ksi%C4%99gi+metrykalne%20%20&columns=*,0,0. They have records from 1758 through 1948.
