Anybody familiar with Szypliszki

Is anybody familiar with the village of Szypliszki, near the present borders of Lithuania and Belorussia? I had relatives from there around 1870 to????.

regionpolski,

It's not clear what you want.

Do you want family info, maps, photos or someone to do something for you ?

If you are not sure where it is: 54'' 15' N 23'' 04' E

I'm interested in the Gmina as well as the village. At least one of my great grandfather's brothers was from there. He (the brother) was a younger brother. My great grandfather listed Zielona Gora as his home, but I suspect he was originally from Szypliszki. My last name is a WICZ ending name, which is common for Belaurussians. I have also heard a story that my last name was originally Lithuanian, and changed to the WICZ ending. My great grandfather's mother had a Lithuanian surname. The location of Szypliszki makes both a possibility. I'm not sure what I can learn. Are there old cemetaries in the area? Des anyone have family from the area that's lived there for a long, long time? My great grandparents emmigrated to the US in 1903. Any information is appreciated.

I hope this helps.. theres a email address as well..

Everything is appreciated. Based on a Nasza Klasza search, as well as other web searches, no one in Poland has my last name. My great grandmother was almost certainly a native of Zielona Gora. Her maiden name was Prugar, and she spoke German as well as Polish, but she listed her nationality as Polish. I suspect that my great grandfather traveled to Zielona Gora from Szypliszki. Unfortunately he was murdered in 1918 or 1919, and his history was lost. My grandfather didn't talk of his dad much, and his mother remarried and with seven children and was grateful to find a second husband and moved on with her life.

my same feeling. we dont do family searches here we help with what we can and maybe someone might run into someone with similar name, but we are not official genealogy site.. I did however think this might be helpful for you just type in your family name its a new pilot for the family history center.

I live in szypliszki.

Email me please. I would appreiate it a great deal.
