Among the challenges inherent in Polish genealogical research are place names, surnames, language and fluid national boundaries. In this talk Louis Welna will discuss how he dealt with these issues during decades of Polish family research. He'll share tips and techniques, useful reference works and his favorite websites. Along the way, Louie will highlight some of the best histories and historical novels - key tools for fleshing out our ancestors' stories.

Classes at the Vermont Genealogy Library will be Zoom webinars from 10:30 to noon. Cost is $10.00. Please visit our website www.vtgenlib.org to register.

NOTE: Our Dec. 17th class, Integrated Digital Organization of Your Genealogy Research has been postponed until spring.
