I submitted a request for access to the google group, but it's been a while and doesn't appear to have been approved yet. Just checking in on that.  Thanks

Hi , im interested in joining, my ancestors ( Daniel Traugott Zerbst) came from Posen Prussia, (and his wife Anna Hirschfield) came from Zlotkowo Posen Prussia,im keen to learn more about them and beyond.

Please add me! My great grandfather Felix Kotowski came from Zwiernyniec (could have the spelling wrong) just before WWI and his wife Mary (Bednarz) and son Stefan followed a few years later. Very stuck with researching this branch of my family tree. My grandmother Eleanor was born in the US.

I would love to help update the data base for Bialy Potok and Rydouby as that is where my grandmother came from.  Have also found some really interesting (to me) information on her.

I do not have an Ancestry subscription so therefore, I can not see the immigration record for your Grandpa. Two things you can do:

1) Tell me the name of the Database you found it on so I can locate it in the free databases

2) Download the actual image of the record and upload it to the image section of your Grandfather's profile here. Make sure to note the source of where it came from.

---

I did not see the record, Jo, for your grandfather but it's possible that he may be from Przasnysz which was in Russia Poland at the time of his immigration.

---

Maggie, the record is attached to Ignatz.  Thank you for helping me find the answer to his hometown.  I believe his father's name is written above the town name.  and who is Wincenty Niedzwiecki?  Mysteries !

Hi, I would love to join the project. Lori

you are good to go now, Lori. 

Answer 13

Yes! I would love to join the Poland project. I'm not sure how much I can contribute, but I'm willing to learn and would love the opportunity to help.

My g-grandparents came from Poland, changed their surname when they came off the boat and left bread crumbs as to their Polish Roots. My g-grandmother told her children (my grandmother and her brothers) the family surname on her deathbed, but unfortunately, the kids only knew how to speak Polish, not spell it so we only have the pronunciation.

My mom has done her MtDNA, but I do not have enough knowledge of the family to tell if I'm getting any matches.

Comments

MtDNA can go way back depending on the test you took, Gerri. For instance, my Polish mitachondrial line goes back to the Ukraine. It was interesting to read up on it.

Even if the Polish surname is anglicized when they immigate, they are still consider "Polish" in roots.

Thanks, Maggie.

Answer 14

yes, I would be pleased to join the Poland Project, Peter K.

Comments

Answer 17

I would love to join the project.  I just recently found my biological father through DNA.  In researching his family tree I found that my great grandmother was born in Poland.  I have figured out that she migrated to the U S in the early 1900s with her father and siblings.  But I can not find documentation on that or any information about her mother.

Comments

Dorie, put up what you know already in your tree and I will try to help you locate your biological great- grandmother's mother. 

Answer 18

Thanks for joining, Kathy !

Comments

Thanks for joining the Poland Project, Andrea !

Answer 20

I just joined, so I have no idea how to help, but my mom's side is from Ukraine/Poland and have been difficult to track before they made it to Philly and NJ, so I'd love to team up with people! Kachmar / Kachmarchik / and Corwonski / Cerwinka / a hundred other Anglicized spellings, I'm sure. I'm going to get my aunt to help sort through my tree at Thanksgiving.
