Join us in welcoming, Eva Kujawa

This presentation will provided a brief historical overview of Eastern Europe and how it morphed through divisions, border changes, and wars into the countries that exist in today's world. Eva will cover the majority of Eastern European countries and will share the impacts of the various cultures that exist in these areas.

 

Participants will be guided through the process of accessing various research resources, such as civil registration and church records, and learn how to plan, research, and address potential challenges and solutions for this type of genealogical research. This presentation will also discuss topics like what is in a name, naming traditions, languages, the various handwriting styles.

 

At the end of the presentation, there will be a Q&A session.
