[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] requesting record search from Piotrokov Tribulanski

[Linda Bowen]

Hi Paul,
It has been at least 12 years ago that I got these.   I'll have to go 
back  and find out exactly what the archives called these.
I have them scanned on my computer.  If you like I could send you the 
two pages in Polish to look at.
The  town was Meszcze.
