Marge's Surnames

From time to time I receive e-mails or guestbook entries from other researchers asking if I know more about ________ -- fill in the blank.  Sometimes their relative came from the same village as my ancestors.  Other times they have a surname in common with one I have on my family webpage or in my World Connect family file at Rootsweb.  There are times I'll do a look up at my downtown library in Omaha for someone.  On occasion the researcher turns out to be a distant cousin.  (Hallelujah!!)  Following is information I've collected for other individuals that isn't included in my family pages.

CICHOWSKI / CHICHOWSKI

8 October 2007 -- e-mail from Bill
I am currently working on my family records in Poland and was wondering if you might have any records on the Chichowski family?  I have most of the American records but the Polish ones are very hard to find. Pitor Chichowski (b1840) is the last I have going back.

PIECZONKA

22 December 2007 -- e-mail from Alan and Chuck
I visited your website regarding births/deaths in  Leki Dolne.  My brother and I are tracing our roots, and we believe that our Grandfather, Stanislaw Pieczonka was born August 3, 1878 in Leki Dolne.  However, I do not find his name on the Leki Dolne or Leki Gorne birth lists.  In addition, he had a sister, Anna Pieczonka, who was born April 15, 1880, supposedly in the same area....

Note:  I have a website with a partial transcription of the church records for the Parish of Łęki Górne / Leki Gorne.  This is the site that Alan and Chuck are referring to.
