Using Gazetteers and Maps for Polish Genealogy

History and geography are inextricably linked, so genealogical research requires the ability to accurately identify and locate places mentioned in historical documents. It is also important to understand the administrative hierarchy for the government of a place since different types of records were created at different levels of government. This lecture introduces a variety of different digitized gazetteers (geographical dictionaries) and databases that are useful for identifying places which are presently or formerly located in Poland, including two phonetic gazetteers which are helpful when place names are misspelled in historical records. Additionally, Julie will identify sources for online maps for Polish genealogy, including cadastral maps for Galicia.
