We would also appreciate any further information relevant that may not have been covered. I am very sure there are many questions relating to this topic we have not even thought to ask. So please members continue posting.....

Life / Help with bureaucracy in Poland regarding citizenship [17]

Thank you for your views... we know there are issues in finding the necessary certificates and the Registry Office in Warsaw are looking into it for us. When or rather if, we hear back from the Registry Office we 'might' get some good news...here's hoping but we are not banking on it. We know exactly for my grandfather and have an image of his birth record from the parish but no marriage record to Mama's mother (we only know her Christian name nothing else) or Mama's birth. We also qualify via our father but similar issues apply to him...all he has is his International Refugee Organisation travel papers that state born Poland but birth date and parents names are missing as he was an orphan. Because of the difficulties we face that is why a third party is under consideration.

Genealogy / Searching for anyone who has Bireta in their family tree [2]

I would like to make contact with anyone who has the Bireta surname in their family tree. My branch, which seems to be the largest concentration of Bireta are from the Poręba-Kocęby area near Wyszków and Brańszczyk, Mazowieckie.

I think our case is complicated...Mama was very young when her family were deported to Siberia. She against all odds made it out to Persia as did her father. He joined Anders army. Mama eventually was sent to New Zealand as an orphan. After the war her father traced her to New Zealand and they were reunited. We have difficulty obtaining her birth certificate and her parents marriage certificate.

I am also from Australia and considering Polish citizenship. I am wondering if it is best to attempt the process on my own or use a service such as Poltran to undertake the task. Worth the expense or not???
