Genealogy / Swierzawa and Nowy Kosciol area [5]

My family emigrated to Australia in 1848.

I have records of baptism of daughters in Neukirch, Schonau (now Novy Kosciol and Sweirzawa). How do I get copies of them?

Names of parents were Karl Ehrenfried Foerster and Dorothea Foerster (nee Roehrigt or Roehricht).

I am looking forward to visiting the area in April 2012.

Can anyone help with more information please?

Travel / Is it safe to travel to Poland? [194]

Merged: Safety in Poland for tourists

I am an older Australian woman who will be visiting Poland next year. I may travel into Poland by train, and spend some time in cities doing bus tours.

I have driven in Europe before & I will be hiring a car to visit smaller vaillages. How safe is it for a woman alone in Poland?

Should I take it further & even hire a camper/motor home in Poland? I have done this in other countries. I am a confident traveller. It is much easier for me than carting my luggage on & off buses, trains & cars.

Hi Colleen

This is fantastic. Yes that is my family and we are cousins of some degree. Louisa was my great grandmother too. I look forward to sharing what we know. I will email you.
