I just learned from my great grandfathers passport application that he was born in Kolnica, Russia around 1871. How can I find this location on a map and how can I find the new name for the town?

Debra, I "googled" Kolnica and a lot came up, but most was in Polish. Just from viewing a few things I think the name of the town has stayed the same, but now of course Poland. I ran into the same type of thing with my grandmother's family being listed as Russia at the time. I'm sure there are others here that can help you more than I can. Good luck. Mary
