To anyone that is interested. Myself had been trying to obtain information about my relatives in Poland.
After total frustration with researching and getting no where, I contacted the Red Cross International Research Center at the local Chapter of my State/Province.

There are forms to be fill out,and providing them with as much information you can, they were able to find enough for me to be able to find additional ancestors history.

They will assist you to reconnect or find family members information, it apply's to families affected by the Holocoust/War War2.

ifrc.org

Contact your National Society to begin a search, or call your local XXXX Red Cross chapter, the critical link in your community to the international Red Cross and Red Crescent network.

the polish are a secreative lot wont give anything away-trust no-one

So true. My mom was the secretive one in our house. I remember she yelled at me(I was maybe 4, 5 years old) for telling our neighbor she was pregnant with my sister. "It's none of their business" she screamed. Mom was already showing. I don't think I gave away the family secret lol

Yes. They are provided by LDS church. Go To "Familysearch.org" I have found many baptism records of my family from 1600-1950. It is also for free.

If you need marriage records, you can either contact local authorities (urząd stany cywilnego) or church in the area where the marraige took place. My cousin was reaseraching that for his project and he got all the info from local catholic church authirities.

It's virtually impossible to find Polish records online. Familysearch have added some records to their new index, my ancestors were in their Tarnów records.

The best thing to do is go to your local Latter Day Saints family history centre to view (for free) their Polish microfilms of parish registers. You can view their holdings online via their main site, you need to order them in advance. I found my ancestors dating back to 1632 in their films. I don't speak or write Polish but found the registers very easy to understand.

they don't have all the registers. some government body put a stop to it some years ago.

Some of the recent postings about this topic are completely wrong and convey a very negative attitude.

Polish Archives have posted millions of original records (older than 100 years) on line and are continuing to add more every few months. Of course they can only scan and post what is in the Archive. Many records for certain locations and parishes have been destroyed in wars or were lost over time. There are two sites for finding these records.

Hi

I trying to trace my late Father-In-Law's place of birth all we know that he came from Poland. He name is Antoni Jozep Kazemierz Werner, b: 11th March 1919 all we know is he had a sister.

Sadly he died in shaklin Isle Of Wight UK on the 24th May 1982. Unfortunately my late husband knew nothing of his Father as his marriage to my husbands mother only lasted a few years and they were divorsed in 1948.

Can anyone help.

Many thanks

Can anyone please help me find my great-granddad Anthony Czarnecki's birth record on the Polish Archives Website, since I can't really read Russian at all? From what the Polish Archives told me (*eye roll*):

W ksiqdze z 1904 r. parafii rzymskokatolickiej z Berznik zostat odnaleziony akt urodzenia Antoniego Czarneckiego s. Juliana i Aleksandry Andrulewicz.

Short translation: the record was found in holdings for Berzniki Parish under "Czarnecki". (You can guess who looked for ways to obscure our heritage again, thus the eye roll.)

In the original email (which I'm guessing may have been forwarded via the Zamosc Archives), using Google Translate, I even wrote:

Czerniecki (pierwotnie Chernetski lub Chernetzky) Zernetzky, etc. (Lipsk, Mackowa Ruda). Mój oddział (ojca dziadek "Antoni", ne nieznany, a jego rodzice, Julian i Aleksandria z Andrulewiczow Czerniecki) zmienił go na "Czarniecki" i "Czarnecki"...bo staliśmy Anusim przeżyć pogromy...

(Short translation: they used "Czarnecki", etc. after the conversion, which may've happened earlier than I thought and perhaps after the Farber-Kogan incident and/or due to some of the 1904 pogroms.)

Lowitsch, Lodzkie, Poland

"Łowicz" is the Polish way of spelling the name.

As I said, I was told that his birth was registered in October 1904. It was registered on October 23, 1904 in Berżniki Parish. They claim that he was born in Szumowo.

Try Ancestry and see if Lowitsch can be found under German Birth and Baptism Records. Also try JewishGen if they were Jewish.

No chance unless you are looking for records pre 1807.
