I see that Alexander Sharon has already located your Austrian town of

Komarno, which is now in Ukraine. You should search the JRI-Poland database by going to www.jri-poland.org and clicking on Search Database. The newly revised search capability allows you to search for a surname >from a specific town. Enter surname FRIEDMANN as the first Search Parameter and set to Sounds Alike. Then enter town Komarno "is exactly" as Parameter 2. The result will show every FRIEDMANN record (and spelling variations) that shows Komarno the town of registration or a town mentioned in the record. Even common names can now be searched in the JRI-Poland database with more confidence. You may also want to try a double Surname search to see if any records in the database include both FRIEDMANN and TAUB. Mark Halpern JRI-Poland AGAD Archive Coordinator

I'm having difficulty identifying which Komarno my grandmother was from to begin to search for records. The family names are TAUB and FRIEDMANN so these are too common for identification. The only primary document I have is my grandmother's birth certificate which appears to be written in Austrian. Any suggestions for how to proceed? Michael Goldrich
