----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Hello fellow Map-Ler's! I have a question regarding the name of a town in Poland. A patron trying to track down a family history believes that ancesters at one time lived in a town named Minsk Mazowiecki, Poland (52.10 N 21.31 E). She is under the impression that the town, during several changes in possession, also had a change in name sometime during the time period 1900-1914. We are lacking in any historical maps of Poland at that level of detail for that time period. Would some kind soul out there, mind checking for a possible change in name for us? Or point us to a source we might be able to get our hands on, that would provide us this information? I would be greatly indebted. If I can provide any additional information on this please feel free to contact me. Thanks in advance! Lisa A.
