Geneablogy: An occasional Journal about our experiences exploring our heritage

Thursday, April 13, 2000

On Buscha Horbal’s birth certificate, the name Bircza appears a couple of times at the top. It appears that perhaps this is the location of the office that has the original birth certificate. According to UK Multimap, it’s not far from Przemysl. I can’t find Lipa on Multimap, though. The map on the Calle World Gazetteer that I had pegged as the most likely Lipa in Poland looks like it’s in the same area.

Going to Expedia and searching for Lipa didn’t find the right one, but searching for Bircza, Poland, showed me a map with a Lipa very near by. This must be the one!
