Help looking at indexes on records

[os2hugh]

My Dear Genealodzy friends,

I have a task I will be undertaking in the upcoming weeks and will appreciate any help that those who can read Russian can help. It is fortunate that many of these records books have indexes to make finding records easier.

Here is the background information on the search issue. A few years back I was lucky enough to find census documents and passenger lists that had listed my ancestors of the Szymkiewicz family, this along with marriage and death records in America gave me approximate ages of ancestors and when I found some village names I was able to find a number of sacramental records in Lithuania.

Here is the situation on the family as it stands now and what I am looking for:

Adolf Szymkiewicz and his wife Jozefa Fronckiewicz had the following children (They were married in Kozakiszki on 22 January 1884, He was 21, she was 19 *confirmed by having both baptism records)

1. Weronika b. 1 March 1885 Kozakiszki, d. 1949.
2. Zofia b. unknown approx. 1890 (looking for record)
*She died 10 Mar 1929. Headstone lists 1890 as birth year*
3. Stanislaw b. unknown approx. 1892-3 (looking for record)
*No death info found*
4. Bronislaw b. 9 Dec 1895 Kozakiszki, d. 1952.
5. Marianna b. 3 July 1898 Nowe Troki, d. 1918.
6. Julia b. 29 Aug 1901 Nowe Troki, d. 1998.

The Fronckiewicz family had members from previous generation born in Nowe Troki, Stare Troki, Jewie and Kozakiszki, yet my researcher checked the years in these parishes and could not find Zofia or Stanislaw. Adolf and his father were born in Szyrwinty parish to the norwest of Mejszagola. Adolf's mother Julia Dowiat was born in Mejszagola.

I decided it was probable they were born in the 1886-1895 gap so I figured the best method would be to check the bordering parishes in the deanery. The first place I want to look is Sumiliszki. This parish is between Kozakiszki and Jewie to the North, and Nowe and Stare Troki to the south.

Here are the links to the indexes looking for Szymkiewicz births.

To those that can look at the indexes, thank you, and if anyone has any advice or experience in these kinds of searches I'd appreciate it. The strange thing about this to me is the 10 year leap between children born in Kozakiszki with the youngest two daughters born in Nowe Troki.

Again many thanks,

Hugh

Here you are:

1886:
SzyNkiewicz (misspelling? quite often, when Russain was transcrybing Polish names) Aleksandr (what means Aleksander) son of Agata

1887:
Szymkowi?? Ewa daughter of Piotr

1888:
Szynkowicz(?) Jan son of Yuryi (Jurija)

1889, 1890, 1891:
none

1892:
Szymkiewiczewna (may be the Russain form of “miss Szymkiewicz” Anna daughter of Jan

1893, 1894:
none

My pleasure:).
I’ve checked only the cyrylic texts (one of the books contains the list of names written in Polish, too).
Don’t hesitate to ask if you need some more explanations/details.

Again thank you very much.

Before posting the next set of indexes for Rykonty parish, I thought it might be a good idea to post the records of Weronika and her brother Bronislaw. There was ten year between them but maybe their birth villages might shed some light on a location to another parish.

Weronika 1885: Link below is to website where I posted baptism in two pdf formats back in 2014 it is 3rd entry on the page.
