Comment on The Rasos Cemetery in Vilnius, Lithuania by Steve

Hi Joanne. Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, I don’t know the answer to your questions. I was only in the cemetery for an hour or two and even that was almost 6 years ago. Sorry I can’t be of more help.

Best regards, Steve

Visited Rasos in 2000 but could not locate graves of the Serafinowicz and Majewski families. We would like to get a photo of these graves if possible. There was an office there but it was closed for the day. Is there someone at the cemetery to contact? If not, who should I contact for the assistance?

Thanks very much for posting all these transcriptions of your family. They have been helpful to me for certain words I could not work out. As to your difficulties with certain transcriptions, perhaps I might return the favor. With regard to the names, I have found it useful to compare potential matches in the indices at the end of every year with my difficult-to-read names and then look for records (as indicated by indices) where the name is spelled out more clearly in Roman characters. Sorry if this is obvious.

Comment on The Birth and Baptism of Marianna Ślaska – 1831 by Michal Jan Ślaski-Suchorzewski

Dear Mr. Steve ???

I see you are doing searches about your Ślaski & related families… I gathered a lot of informations about this family trough internet, but I don’t know how much they are reliable. I even constructed an ancestral tree with this data e were just looking if in this I could identify Ignacy Ślaski and Magdalena Chodkowska, for instance… but what I found was a marriage between Franciszka Chodkowska and Maciej Ślaski in 1879. Of course this is a different couple from that shown in your blog. But considering that Ślaski family isn’t at all so numerous, surely we would find common connections. Are you interested in changing information with me about this issue? I would be glad if I receive notices from you.
