Dear Fellow Galitzianers:

JRI-Poland has uploaded over 20,000 extended indices for 11 Galician towns in the eastern part of Galicia. This includes data for Halicz, a town that previously had no vital record data online.

This newly uploaded data is searchable using the JRI-Poland legacy search engine reached from the JRI-Poland homepage by clicking on “Search” from the menu at the top.

B=births; M=marriages; D=deaths

Lwow Area

Drohobycz: 1918B; 1916,1918-1934,1936-1938M; 1916-1937,1939D

Grodek Jagiellonski: 1904-1928M; 1904-1916D
Krakowiec: 1877-1889D

Mosty Wielkie: 1903-1915B; 1878-1919M; 1935-1939M Index Data Only

Rawa Ruska: 1909-1935M

Stanislawow Area
Halicz: 1923-1931M; 1923-1936D
Kosow: 1877-1881B; 1891-1896,1899-1911M

Tarnopol Area
Borszczow: 1930-1937M
Budzanow: 1914-1939,1941-1942D
Kopyczynce: 1920-1938M
Pomorzany: 1919-1939,1941D


Many of these groups of records cover the period of World War I and the last great pandemic. There are a number of towns in the area including Halicz and Pomorzany that are missing records from before World War I. In most cases, these records were destroyed during the War. Where records before WWI are intact, the records for the War years might be missing or curtailed as the War rolled through Galicia.
 
Some records have been indexed and are not yet online as they await additional funding. Here are 10 towns in that situation: Boryslaw, Czortkow, Gliniany, Jagielnica, Kolomyja, Lwow, Rudki, Stanislawow, Stary Sambor, Uhnow. Please contact me if you need more information about any of these eastern Galician towns.

Lastly, I want to thank all the great volunteers and donors who helped make this announcement possible. Especially, I want to thank Michael Tobias who handles all the data for the database and the following volunteers who have indexed some of the eastern Galician records being made available to you now: Denise Fletcher, Suzanne Hecker, Philippe Volvovic, Max Wald, and Suzan Wynne.

JRI-Poland Coordinator for the Lwow, Stanislawow, and Tarnopol Areas
