Płonna Greek Catholic Births 1845 - 1865 (Powiat Sanok, Poland)

The following records were compiled by Debbie Greenlee. She is the owner and author of this page.

These records were digitized and placed online by the Polish Civil Archive in Przemyśl. The archive skipped pages 14, 15 when it scanned the records, which cover approximately February 1847 to May 1847.

These are copies of the church records, which were submitted to the Urząd Stanu Cywilnego for their civil records. Because of that, these are considered civil records and that is why these ended up in the civil archive.

Polish diacriticals were used in order to spell the names correctly and you will need to use them in your search terms. Surname spellings changed a bit through the years so you should be flexible when searching. The letter ‘j’ will show up as a letter ‘i’ in many surnames such as Dryja being spelled Dryia in these records. If you expect to have the letter 'j' or 'i' in a surname, try substituting 'y'; Gayda/Gajda, Barylak/Barilak. The surname Worotyła may be found spelled as Worotyło. If your surname has a ‘w’ in it such as Kutkowski, it probably didn’t have one in the 1820s. It is probably spelled, Kutkoski. That also goes for other surnames that today end with –owski. You may need to be creative when searching for a surname.

If a father is not listed then the child is listed as illegitimate in the record.

If nothing is listed in the NAME column that means the child was stillborn. Usually the sex is listed in the record.

Women’s surnames were spelled using the nominative masculine endings; -ska is -ski and -cka is -cki. So if you are looking for a woman with the surname Jakubowska, search on Jakubowski.
