Galician Vital Registers: Finding & Understanding Your Family’s Records

Join us for a 90-minute presentation led by Mark Halpern, our JRI-Poland Galicia
Research Area Coordinator and long-time executive committee member. Mark is
certainly an expert on how to successfully research your families from this
complicated area of the world. Towns that were once part of Galicia include
places in either Poland or Ukraine today.

This Galician session offers:

• An in-depth examination of Galician vital records,
• A strategic framework to help researchers in acquiring records to further
  their research,
• Historical perspective covering the regulations that governed Jewish
  recordkeeping in Galicia, including those affecting civil marriages that
  impacted the legitimacy and surnames of children.
• The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session.
• The presentation will be recorded for later viewing in the JRI-Poland Video
  Library which is available as a benefit of Annual Membership in JRI-
  Poland.
