[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Janow's, alegata's and more

Fri Mar 30 08:02:07 PDT 2007

Hello all,

Some time ago i was trying to find a Janow near Piotrkow.  (some of
discussion below this letter)
With some new information, I'm almost sure that I found, but I need a advice
for the more experienced people.
Only refreshing the memory:

First of all, I've found (people of the list helped) on the marriage record
of my great grandfather Johann Norenberg a birth place called Janow, as you
can see:

And now, I've found Emile Norenberg, sister of Johann, that born in Osiny:

At this time, I received information about communes, one called Dmosin that
is Janow in new Brzeziny district.
I imagine that Osiny must be near the Janow. So, researching about Catholic
Churches in familysearch, I've found accidentally in the details of
microfilm:

Civil transcripts of Roman Catholic parish register of births, marriages and
deaths for Dmosin (Brzeziny), Łódź, Poland. Includes surrounding towns:
Nadobna, Osiny A and Rudniki. Text in Polish and Russian. Partially indexed.

Akta urodzeń, małżeństw, zgonów 1820-1831 FHL INTL Film 702338

So, if one of surrounding towns of this is Osiny, I imagine that's the
correct place that my ancestors lived. And looking some maps I can notice a
Janow and an Osiny surrounding Dmosin. All near Piotrkow-Trybunalski. Please
take a look:

http://uk2.multimap.com/M4/browse.cgi?scale=100000&lon=19.7667&lat=51.9167&i
con=X
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=51.9167,19.7667+(Dmosin)

I can see a town a bit larger very near all this: Glowno. Are this town
maybe provided of records around? (Marriage, birth, etc).

And last, I found possible alegata records on that place (Dmosin):
http://baza.archiwa.gov.pl/sezam/pradziad.eng.php?mode=show&id=765&miejscowo
sc=dmosin&gmina=&binary=

Maybe can I try these alegata? Or maybe can I try the alegata on
Piotrkow-Trybunalski?

Some doubts for now, but I think its growing.

Sorry any confusing, because I'm not perfect in english

Thanks

For the Alegata, you have to write to the Warsaw Archives indicating what
you require. You can write in English. They will write back to you in
Polish indicating the cost of the search. You must then arrange to get the
money to them and they will then provide the records if available. It can
take many months, the payment procedure is difficult, you must get a
translation of the Polish response, and, in the end, you may find that there
is no record of value.

Of course you can search Catholic records. They are usually only helpful in
regions where there was no Lutheran Church or before the Lutheran Church was
established. there. If you plan to do that, check first to see what is
available through the Mormon Library as they may be available on microfilm.

And finally, remember that we can only guess at the correct Janow. It is a
very common place name. I have recommended the most likely two
possibilities but there could be others.

Piotrkow was never part of Germany. It was always Russia or Poland.

Unfortunately I know of no other research opportunities other than the
Alegata (marriage announcements) for this parish that exist in the Warsaw
Archives - see http://www.archiwa.gov.pl/?CIDA=378 and click on "Database"
in upper right to get to the search page. While it is possible that
Ferdinand was born in a German State, it is more likely that he was also
born somewhere in Russian Poland. Even if he was born in a German State, it
would be impossible to find him without knowing the location. Such
information would only be found in the Piotrkow Parish records. IFyou could
find the marriage announcement for Ferdinand in the Alegata, it would tell
you where he was born.

Jerry,

Thanks for the help.
Very bad news for the records... it means that i've stopped in the time?
As I can see, there are no records near 1860.
I don't know what I can do now.

Maybe I can research where Ferdinand born. Maybe were born in a German
State?
By the way, Piotrkow was Russian or German in that age? Sorry my
desinformation.

Unfortunately, there are many Janow in Poland,
several dozen in fact. The one you are looking
for would be in the Piotrkow province in the
vicinity of Piotrkow Trybunalskie.
There are two possibilities with the most likely
being located about 16 km NE of that city at about N51/28 E19/54.
The other is about 30 km SE of the city at about N51/17 E20/04.
The bad news in any case is that very few records
for this parish exist. You can find the list of
years at http://www.sggee.org/church_parishes/LutheransInRusPoland
