- NOTES -
-
My Ukrainian/Lemko is worse than my Latin. I have neither
made an effort to correct the inflections in the names I found in parish
registers written in Latin, nor to de-Latinize them. These people
were not known by the names indicated above. If you can help me with
this, of course feel free to email
me.
-
Many accented characters found in place names and surnames
have been omitted so that I can use the more attractive fonts available
in an iso-8859-1 document. (eg. a bar across the L in Losie,
a hook under the a in Dabros)
