Between that and people not being as concerned with certain spellings of names and locations it truly is a challenge. It does make it more interesting, we have our own private mysteries to solve!Kathleen Kolodzinski Laprisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17303116951845209168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4306219747808863309.post-61872042358455260632013-02-28T09:14:32.511-06:002013-02-28T09:14:32.511-06:00Hi!

It helps explain the language, research problems, translating Polish records, contacting Polish resources, etc. He has written several books on translating other European records also which are also very helpful.<br /><br />Best of luck with your research!<br />Kathleen Kolodzinski Laprisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17303116951845209168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4306219747808863309.post-73952690998680843342013-02-26T15:12:34.402-06:002013-02-26T15:12:34.402-06:00I have similar issues with our German & Polish...I have similar issues with our German & Polish ancecstors. It seems every document I find cites a different location. It most likely has something to do history, borders, and conflicts.

It almost makes me want to learn the language to understand how something that looks <i>so</i> pronounced one way could sound quite different!<br /><br />Kathleen, I found your blog today, thanks to an announcement on GeneaBloggers.
