PD and Kevin,

I love this list because I learn something new on a daily basis! Thanks for the tip about the keyword search. I've probably seen that button on the search screen a hundred times and it never registered! Also, that birth summary thing is pretty neat -- I haven't seen that before in the few parishes I've had the opportunity to research through the LDS. Maybe this will be my lucky day.

Julie: Kevin is correct, and anyone researching Wojcik & Zajac can't be wrong!
Keyword search burrows down a bit further into the catalog for the also-rans.
Also, if you click on the highlighted blue wording for the parish at the top of the listing of the six films available, you get additional films for that locality which go back to the 1600's which may or may not list Barl~ogi. Might pay to read the birth summaries to 1810.
