JRI - POLAND : POLISH STATE ARCHIVES PROJECT

Indices for previously unavailable records

The goal of the Jewish Records Indexing - Poland milestone agreement with the Polish State Archives is to index all Jewish vital records more than 100 years old in the Polish State Archives that are not included in the microfilm collection of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons). Copies of these records are available from the Polish State Archives.

Access the special instructions regarding the order form.

Please read these instructions.

Toruń Polish State Archives (PSA) project:

Indexing is proceeding on an archive by archive basis and data entry is now complete for the records of Chelmza, Golub-Dobrzyń in the Toruń branch of the Polish State Archives.

At the present time, there is no Archive Coordinator for the Toruń branch of the Polish State Archives. To volunteer, please contact JRI-Poland Executive Director, Stanley Diamond at SMSDiamond@aol.com.

As the fundraising target is reached for each town, the data is processed and the information from the indices will become available on-line. See the Project Status page for the current fundraising status for the towns in the Toruń project. Fundraising targets will be added as information on the cost of each town project becomes available.

For the latest information about projects to index the records at other branches of the Polish State Archives, read the JRI-Poland / Polish State Archives project pages and subscribe to the JRI-Poland mailing list.
