Polish Family Tree Research - Genealog Pani Włościanka

Building a family tree is a journey into the history of your family and a way to rediscover the lives of your ancestors. As a professional genealogist, I help clients trace their Polish roots using archival records, parish registers, and historical sources.

I offer comprehensive Polish genealogy research focused on reconstructing family history and creating a well-documented family tree based on original archival records.

My work covers every stage of genealogical research – from analysing the information provided by the client to locating and interpreting documents that confirm family connections.

As part of the research process, I provide:

searches for ancestors in Polish state and church archives,
analysis of birth, marriage and death records,
research in genealogical databases and digital archives,
assistance with obtaining documents from civil registry offices and archival institutions,
reading and translating historical documents (for example from Russian, Latin or German),
verification and organisation of family information,
preparation of a clear and well-structured family tree.

During the research I locate documents confirming successive generations of ancestors and gather information about their lives, places of origin and historical context.

The result of this work is a documented family tree based on historical sources, allowing you to better understand your family history and preserve it for future generations.

The family tree can be prepared:

in a digital format that can be expanded in the future,
as a print-ready family tree, which can serve as a keepsake or a meaningful gift.

Every family story is unique, which is why the scope of genealogical research is always determined individually. The results depend on many factors, including the availability and preservation of historical records.

If you would like to discover your Polish ancestors and explore your family history, I would be happy to help.

A family tree can include anywhere from a few to even a dozen or more generations, depending on the available sources and the scope of the research. Everything depends on your needs and goals.

Joanna Rybicka

"I highly recommend!!! Pani Włościanka helped me (very quickly, I might add) break through one of my genealogical brick walls that had been troubling me for a long time. The report is very clear and full of information – I am very satisfied! 🙂"

Zosia Piech

"I was recently trying to find information about my grandparents, cousins and other relatives in small towns in Belarus that likely perished during the Holocaust. Pani was recommended as someone who could assist in my search for information. I reached out to her over email, she quickly replied, and she's been very helpful in finding information that I wasn't able to find on my own. She's been a pleasure to deal with, and I have very much enjoyed our interactions. I give Pani very high recommendations for anyone trying to find information about family members in Eastern Europe."
