Genealogy / How to find a burial site / records in Poland... [80]

@countryrose
In the city of Debno (Dębno - but not Dembno today - old name) you can find two cemeteries. Both are the Municipal cemeteries, one by the Kosciuszki street, another by Wloscianska I street.

cmentarze24.pl/debno/index.php?go=1

But the people you're looking for were most likely buried in the old cemetery in Debno (old. Neudamm/Nm. - Germany):
neumark.pl/main.php?obiekt=debnocmentarz&lang=en.
Now only a park there.

Info about the city: neumark.pl/main.php?miasto=debno&lang=en - check the comments of ancestors from this place.

...If this is the right place - in Poland there are several towns with the name of Dębno: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dębno_(disambiguation)

According to the rule of law in Poland, people between 10 and 18 years old are obligated to have the bicycle card, when driving on a public roads.

You can get it in a primary school or in a training center for drivers.
If you drive safe, the likelihood that somebody will check your licence is not big, but in the case of any accident or something like that - that's the other story.

And it is interesting because ofiara means an victim in Polish, syna Bolesława = son of Bolesław (the name)
So I'm not sure what could that mean exactly... A victim of Boleslaw's son? Strange. Maybe somebody have a different opinion about this.
