Merged thread:
Local Civil Records Office - Help Finding Address
I'm trying to locate the address (email or post) of the civil records office for my ancestral village in Poland. I don't speak Polish and am having a hard time finding the address online. Could someone please help me? I'd like to find the civil records office for this towns:

I'm looking for two baptism records, 1885 and 1887, from that village and did not have any luck contacting the village church. I am hoping that the civil records office will have what I am looking for.

My ggg grandfather settled in this village after he got married, and I am trying to find the records for this parish. I could not find them on the LDS familysearch.org library catalog, so I was going to try and contact the local parish. I tried searching the internet but to no luck. Could someone help me find the address for this parish? Is there a Polish site that I could use to find church addresses of villages?
Here is the wikipedia link to the village, if it helps -

Genealogy / What is a scultetus/soltys in Poland? [15]
Hahaha, sounds like you've had you've had an interesting soltys or two, krysia. I sure hope that my ancestor wasn't like that (errr the second one.)
Skysoulmate, I bet that you're having a lot better weather than I am. I'm enduring the Chicago winter like I always have, bleh. I've never been to Poland, but I hope to go sometime soon. It's one thing to read about your ancestors in church books, but I imagine that it is quite another to walk in the village where they walked!

Thank you for that information! I'm still a tad confused though. So is the soltys the one in charge of farm production? Does he do anything with law enforcement? Was a soltys in Poland elected or appointed? Could anyone be a soltys?

My great-great-great-great-grandfather was listed in the church records as a "scultetus." He lived in Lulkowo, Poznan, Prussia near the city of Trzemeszno. I have seen several definitions of this term ranging from "sheriff" to "bailiff" to "village headman." Can anyone help me with this term? What does a scultetus do? How did a person become a scultetus? Can anyone help me with this term?
Thank you!
