Welcome to the online pages of the Spuscizna Group. We are a small and dedicated group of family history researchers with families and a variety of "day jobs" in Europe and North America. The one thing that we have in common and that draws us together is our love of our Polish heritage. Spuscizna means heritage, bequest or continuation.

When the Diocese of Tarnow came into existence over 220 years ago, there were 371 parishes in its jurisdiction. This means that there should be an estimated 120 old parishes within the intended area of our focus. Can we accomplish our goal? To date, we've built over 155 unofficial parish websites and we still have a long way to go. Why? Because we didn't take into account the old parishes in the Diocese of Sandomierz and Przemysl, because there's always something interesting just over the next hill, and because a critical online searchable database of the 19th Century Polish parishes has been inoperable for the last three years . To find the old parish that you are interested in, check the PARISH INDEX or consult one of the four INTERACTIVE MAPS below.
