[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] requesting record search from Piotrokov Tribulanski

[Paul Rakow]

  Hello Linda, Omar,

      Can you tell us more about these census records?  Do you know what
 they were called (if possible, in Polish). Which village or town was
 covered?

      If there are actual census records from Poland, that would be
 very interesting news.

      My guess is that you might have some more local list of
 the population - not a government census covering the whole
 country, like the British or US census, but some sort of local
 government records. Many towns kept "Ksiegi Meldunkowe", which listed
 all the families in the town, often with birth-dates and birth-places.
 Might that be what you have?

          Thanks,
             Paul Rakow
