Inga and others
I see that the Mormon's have microfilmed the records of two Goscieszyn;s, for one the records go to 1910 and for the other to 1962. I might suggest ordering a reel for both to see if your ancestral names are present. Good luck with your research!

Inga,
Gol~a~bki and Gos~cieszyn are not the same place though.
Jan was born in Gos~cieszyn.
The question is, which Gos~cieszyn?
