  • “I’d genuinely recommend”

    Genealogy research has been close to my heart for decades. My mum and grandparents were the ones who started looking for our Polish ancestors. Unfortunately, at one point we realised we needed someone on the ground, working directly in the archives. That’s when the team at The Polish Genealogist came in — and they were absolutely spot on. In less than a month we received a complete set of the documents we needed from Kraków, which has allowed us to carry on tracing our family line. Thank you — and I’d genuinely recommend them to anyone who’s hit a brick wall in their research.

  • “I can happily recommend”

    I got Marcin’s contact details from The Polish Genealogist through a friend, who recommended him as a very capable researcher with a real knowledge of both historical and present-day Poland. I asked him to research my dad’s side of the family from the Kielce area, and the results were far better than I’d expected. The real highlight was finding pre–Second World War identity card applications — a lovely thing to have. I can happily recommend Marcin’s work, and the whole team’s, without hesitation.

  • “I’m genuinely really pleased with the results”

    Before the Second World War, my dad and grandad both worked for the Polish railways. I’d always wondered whether any documents about that had survived. So I commissioned an archival search with The Polish Genealogist and also ordered a family tree on my grandad’s side. The whole thing took just under two months, and the results were really positive. I received two personnel files from the Polish State Railways — and there were even two photos of my ancestors in there! On top of that, I got a separate family tree showing two earlier generations I didn’t know about. I’m genuinely really pleased with the results.
