Polish-American Historical Association

PolishRoots® was created to harness the power of the Internet to present research materials of interest to those researching their Polish ancestry. Its most popular features are the PolishRoots SurnameSearch, which allows users to register surnames they are researching, translated entries from the Slownik Geograficzny, a 19th Century Polish gazetteer covering present and former territories within the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and a variety of databases such as PNA Lodges and Galician Vital Records availability. PolishRoots is staffed entirely by volunteers.
