Preliminary Research
Before we begin detailed research, I will check whether the records from the locations where your ancestors lived are available. Occasionally, documents from specific years or places have not survived. That’s why it’s essential to conduct PRELIMINARY RESEARCH to verify their existence.
If the records are available, we can immediately proceed with detailed research!
The cost of preliminary research is – 70 USD
You will receive an email from me within 2-3 days!

| ➤ Obtaining Documents from Archives and Parishes in Poland |
|---|
| – Sometimes, some documents from a given locality (e.g., parish registers, official records) have not yet been digitized and are only available in paper form — in state archives, diocesan archives, or directly in parishes. For people of Jewish origin, documentation may be stored in regional archives, Jewish Religious Community archives, or specialized institutions dedicated to the history of the Jewish community. In such cases, I personally visit the appropriate institution to conduct research and obtain the necessary materials. |
| The cost of obtaining documents from archives, parishes, and religious institutions is 1245 USD and includes: – approximately 40 hours of research work dedicated to source analysis and document retrieval, – all administrative fees — including costs for copies, scans, and archive, parish, or institutional fees, – travel to the selected location within Poland — regardless of the place (state archive, diocesan archive, parish, or an institution holding documentation of the Jewish community, e.g., Jewish Religious Community, Jewish Historical Institute). |
