[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Prepaid Research through the CentralArchives of Historical Records in Warsaw

[Rose Ingram]

Barbara,

I believe you may also have to mail a copy of your wire transfer together
with the letter they request.  For their records this confirms payment for
the requested document.

For General Information for those of you who don't know, some of the
records Barbara refers to have been microfilmed.    Also, all the births
and marriages are also on the IGI.  Someone extracted these names from this
film about 15 years ago.  Grant you the names appear on the IGI as they are
written in the church book, so be creative with your name spellings when
searching.     Many marriages also are in the St. Peterburg's Volhynian
data, up to about 1869.

: Congratulations!  Regarding the fee, I believe they are requesting an
: electronic transfer to the account number given to you.  You will have to
: arrange for the transfer at your bank.  At least, that is the way payment
: was requested for the last search I had done.  It is a quick way to send
: money, but quite expensive.
