I did get to visit Żyrardów back in 2001. But, I think I am due for another visit. It’s a pretty town. I also visited Mszczonów – another town of my forefathers.

I think your idea of celebrating anniversaries of forefathers arrival to the New World is worth spreading :-) .

Have you ever been to Żyrardów? Why not take virtual tour and see pictures taken by today’s inhabitant of this beautiful town..? You can click here: http://polishorigins.com/document/genealogy_tours and find Żyrardów or go directly to: http://travel.webshots.com/album/553182563LHwlQl?start=0

Have a good time :-)
