Instructions for use:
 
This is a detailed atlas of the Kingdom of Poland.  This includes only those parts of Poland which were under Russian rule from 1815-1918.  The atlas has a separate map for each district (Powiat).  The index lists all districts according to province (Gubernia) with the page number for each.
 
 
 
Towns which had Roman Catholic parishes are marked with a cross.  If you are looking for a specific town, you must know the district it was in.  You can get this information from a gazetteer..
