Please use the films at first. You received the answers from

great specialists with the best experiences of film reading.

We are need for a help your last exactly datas with names
of the persons and villages.

If you cant find a solution for your search then you can
write in Polish to an archive in Poland. You can ask over
our mailinglist for a Polish translation or use this
webpage:

http://www.genealogienetz.de/misc/translation.html
(written in German and English)
If you write your text to this adress: 
trans at genealogienetz.de

.. and in the first line of the body: #ENG>POL
.. then you will receive the answer in some days.

A little hint: the best way for good contacts to the
archives in Poland .. write a letter with all of your datas,
ask about email-adresses and contact persons ..
and with this answer you can write your first email.

Are you member of a researcher society?
This societies have some relations to the archives in Poland
or perhaps a cheaper way for requests.

If no, you can read this webpage:
AGAD in Warschau [englisch]
http://www.archiwa.gov.pl/agad/eng/price.html

An example of experiences with the contacts to the arcive in 
Radom you can read in our Volhynia-Forum:

Here written some ideas for the money transfer, but ask
at first please in your environment for a solution.
