mwieszcholek:
Jaszczurowa Poland

As you are aware there are two places by that name in close vicinity to each other. Having seen some other of your threads his wife was Orszulak and as there are some Orszulak's in Jaszczurowa in the District (Gmina) Mucharz in Wadowice County it might be a good place to start.

The parish church is Sw. Wojciecha:-

Mucharz 111, 34‑106 Mucharz, tel. +44 (33) 876 14 67

Thanks, I am aware there are two places with the same name. Would you happen to know if Zglobice is in the District of Mucharz.

If you have any luck finding information about your family in this area, please let me know. My great grandmother, last name Fortuna, is also from Jaszczurowa, most likely the one in Gmina Mucharz. Her mother's maiden name is Zawiła. My email is LBoris0217@yahoo.com. Thanks! Linda
