Kalvarija
This is just a temporary site - I will use these pages
to post material that will be eventually posted at Carol official Kalvarija site http://www.shtetlinks.jewishgen.org/Kalvarija/Kalvarija.
I been researching the town of Vilkaviskis for the last three years and I trust that you had had a chance to see my Vilkaviskis web site http://www.jewishvilkaviskis.org.

I plan to return to Vilkaviskis in 2009 and also carry out research in Kalvarija with the kind assistance of members of the local high school and hopefully also with the assistance of the Regional Council.
