Thank you for any help you can provide. Marion I believe the Roman Catholic church records for Trnava pri Laborci are located with the records of Vinne', which is just a short distance from Trnava pri Laborci.

Thank you John, I've made a copy of the page of film numbers etc. and will take it with me on my trip to the LDS Family History Center. Placing the order will be the easier part for me....Finding the time to go through the reels will be a bit more difficult. Thank you for your help. It is greatly appreciated.

John, My many thanks to you for taking the time to answer my question. I have printed that list and will take it with me to the LDS and will place my order for the film. I am now very hopeful that I will have success in my search for my husband's grandfather.
