Diane,

Here are some additional records for Szumiacz:

You will need the names of the immigrant's parents in order to be successful with this one. Gaps in the records. Assume you are seeking Prokopow.

Hello,

Would anyone be able to give me a suggestion as to what the correct name/spelling of this village in Poland may be? This is the name as it appears on an ancestor's naturalization documents. "Shunatchick". I am guessing it most likely begins with " SZ".

Thank You!

Diane
