Title: Scottish death certificate- Polish names
Post by: caroline2910 on Sunday 06 March 11 04:35 GMT (UK)

Hi

Unfortunately the certificate I have is a poor quality downloaded version. Help deciphering the Parents names for Elizabeth Klimasiefski would be greatly appreciated. They're Polish names, with the Last name Krupa. Mothers maiden name possibly ends in "venka" or "wenka".

Thanks.

Hi Caroline2910,

Think possibly Walenty and Katarina, M.S. Corwenka?

vv.

Thanks for your reply, I would never have thought of Walenty, but I did a quick polish record search and turns out it's a definite possibility. Now that you mention it, the maiden name does look like Corwenka, I'll keep looking.

Thanks again.
