jbm1942 15 May 2007 / #1My paternal grandfather was born in Borowa, Galicia, Austria March 19, 1876. His name is Jozef Jargosz. What is the origin of this name? Where can I get records of his marraige in Borowa? I never find any similar names in any geneology data bases here in the US. Any ideas?

OP jbm1942 16 May 2007 / #3Yes, I heard them speak of the place you mentioned. How far is that from Krakow? I'm coming in July and I may want to drive for a quick visit. What is there is see? How can I see if there are any others with our last name there? Thanks for your help.
