ksawery: some one help me find my family back in poland if i do have any left. Your best source of family history may be from your eldest family members. I like referring to them as the tribe elders! A sincere thanks PF, for putting up with me FIVE terrific years, muah!

Questions such as......... 1. Where was grandfather / grandmother born? 2. Are there any documents that they brought with them from Poland? 3. Did they have any brothers and sisters?

ksawery: question 1 my grand parents born here my great great grand parents migrated from poland but dont know were exactly well this is information you need to find out before asking online, the only way anyone can help is with the proper information. suggestion number 1. ask your parents where they were born and who all is still alive ( oldest family members) and call them to find out what church * here* they were baptised in. you will get some information from that. another good source, make sure you get correct spellings of your surnames if your great grandparents came from Poland between 1892 and 1924 they would have had to come thru ellis island or baltimore etc, there are a few ports of arrival, but you would need to get a subscription online for ancestry.com ancestry.com is a little expensive, but they have alot of information about genealogy and alot of records like Cencus, Drafts, death records, etc. plus a good suggestion is to get a software program to document all your finds with the sources. genealogy is a big business now, usually you can find information at a local library or history center.. you might also want to check into that. you have to have clues, other wise , no one online or anywhere else can help you without names, places etc.. many people have duplicate names /common names so you have to be specific and go digging, which I might add is the fun part once you actually find a record you didnt previously own. good luck with your searches :) ask everyone , including your parents what old pictures they have and what they know and move up from there..
