Dear Michelle!
?
I'll try to help you. When I'll be in the post office I'll ask for phone books. But there are two main problems:
? First:new? phone books include only company names, addresses etc. It is forbidden to show there any personal information (especially names, addresses, phone numbers)because of protection of personal data?act which obliges from about 10 years. And it is really hard to find old enough phone books which were issued before that act came into life.
? Second: Poland is divided into?16 districts(voivodships)?and every voivodship has its own phone book- it is not a big deal to check 16 books for the name you are looking for. As I said I must find books which were issued before that protection law came- and during that?period (till 1998) Poland was divided into 49 voivodships. It is just a little more books to skim;-)
?
If I find anything I'll let you know, but try to be patient. I live in Upper Silesia in Katowice(south Poland)?and first I'll check this voivodship for you.
?
Take care!

Michelle and Gabriel,
To narrow down which counties and provinces people with the surname Hercun live, you can search at the following wonderful site: Andy Golebiowski Buffalo, New York USA PS. It would be helpful (as suggested numerous times on this list) if people posting messages, especially requests, listed where they currently live. People have posted from at least 4 continents on this list, so you never know how to respond to a request. I could suggest some genealogical groups to Michelle for example, but I have no idea where she lives.

There were 1561 families in the early 1990's with the name Tomecki living in Poland, according to the index by Professor K. Rymut. ?Their distribution across the 49 pre-1998 provinces follows (each province has a two-letter code). ?As you can see, over half *934) are in Ka (the old province of Katowice).

开云体育Andy.
I have put the lst name in Herby and have
determined that there are 35 Hercun s that currently live in Poland.? what
I was hoping for was some addresses so that I could possibly write directly to
them to deteremine if they are related.? I live in Manitoba, canada so if
there are any genealogical groups that you could refer me to that would be
wonderful.
thanks
Michelle

While there were 35 Hercuns in Poland in the early 1990s, the thing with Polish is those pesky accents. ?When you enter Hercu* into the finder, it makes the last letter a wild card, revealing another 178 more names under Hercun' (the n has an accent, sounding like the first sound in the Russian 'nyet'). Do you have ANY clue as to where your family was from? Here's a few found in the on-line phonebook http://www.ditel.pl/asp/szukaj_a.asp? (which is very finicky) most in the Lower Silesia province (woj. dolnoslaskie). ?Bizzarely, on this website here the * is used as an accent symbol - you enter it after any letter that needs an accent....

开云体育That is wonderful thanks.? yes I have clues as to where
they are from.? On other lists I never received much response and didnot
give much info this time.? My grandfather came from? tarnopol which I
realize is now Ternopil Ukraine.? We have birth and marriage certificates
of theirs as well as other documnetation that we believe to be a will of
sorts.? Of course it is written is Polish and we are unable to
decipher.? My fathers 2 oldest brothers were born there (tarnopol)?as
well.? we do have some sibling names but not a lot of information about
them.? We know that ALL Hercuns in Canada and US are relations but trying
to send writen word to them via letter or email has been nonproductive.?
Thank you for all your help.? There has also? been talk of the name
originally HERZ but we do not habve evidence of such.? I believe that it is
not a common name.? I have searched ellis Island and beleive that grandpas
siblings did immigrate as well.? Some did stay in
Poland/Ukraine.
Thanks again and any other info is welcome

Aha,
So you're in Canada. See, I did not know that. I'm sorry I don't know of any groups in Canada, though I'm sure they exist. I'm more familiar with the U.S. I thought that the county and province listings would help Gabriel narrow down the phone books he'd have to look in. Also, please check for Hercun with a slash over the "n" just in case your name was ever spelled that way. You do that by writing "Hercu*" and getting any possible endings on the results page. I can't be sure, but the name sounds Ukrainian to me. Check that out.
