The Polish Villages of Pomaski and Głodki

The earliest records for my Niedziałkowski ancestors are in the Krasne parish where the villages of Mosaki and Godacze were located, but my Great-Great-Grandfather, Wojciech Niedziałkowski, moved to the Szwelice parish sometime during his life.

In the Szwelice parish, all of the church records I’ve found for the Niedziałkowski family were reported from either Pomaski or Głodki .  Here are the Słownik Geograficny entries for those two villages.
