Hi Bohdana, I'm just cleaning out my inbox when I came across this message that I had saved. I was curious as to what your research turned up. Did you end up posting a summary back to the group?

I am searching for a village named Koscielna - township Jakiwiszki where a baptism occurred in 1834. Also I know Folwark means a large farm but the name of the frarm isRyngwaldyczki. Can someone give me assistance as to where these places were at that time? They may have been in an area of present day Lithuania near Virballis as this is the area my Salzburger immigrants were in. Surnames - Heidrich, Zaborowsky, Less, Krause, Selmikat, Hohl/Holl, Steinke, Hopp/Hoppe and more. Thank you for any assistance. Sandie in Wisconsin
