Hello,

I need help, my grandfather passed away before I was born and my dad has gave me as much information as he has. My grandfather was born in Poland in Brzozow on the 29.12.1928. His name was Mieczyslaw Tarnawski. His parents name I believe were a Marcin and Maria with siblings called Joseph, Michael and Suzi. I know a lot of my grandads family died in the war and his father was shot. I need help I want to start by finding hopefully a birth or baptism record of Mieczyslaw? I do not know where to look as most websites are in polish if someone could help me or direct me to the correct place I would be most greatful.

Kind regards
Emma

Re opening this if anyone can help. Mieczyslaw Stephen Tarnawski. From Brzozow, HUMINSKA.

If anyone could give me details of a place in Huminska that may be able to help please do. I cannot speak polish therefore can't continue search without someone from Poland helping me.

Best Wishes,
Emma

Emma,

You could look at some maps, which should show the local church. The church address will be on a local web-site.

Then write a brief letter, which someone here can translate.

Find a forum for a local town web-site and post a message.

Have you read all the Genealogy links on this site ?
