Can anyone give me some ideas on how I can get church records I received from the Archives in Zamosc which are written in Russian around 1855 translated into either Polish or English? Thanks for your input, I appreciate it. Donna **************Who's never won? Biggest Grammy Award surprises of all time on AOL Music.

Records were not written in Russian until 1868. From 1808 through 1867, they were written in Polish. Here's an excellent site for help in this area: http://www.esisnet.com/~jackbowmanstc/. The link on the bottom of the page gives you the old alphabet used before 1918. I have used it for several years to assist me in finding and transliterating records from Russian to Polish.
