Hi Planeswalker
Thank you for your consideration.
I can imagine that there is a problem there. But apparently they couldn’t even find the record of the census from 1920, or in the voters list or military records etc. Those are all essential tools for a modern state to operate on.
Unfortunately the only thing they said was that they couldn’t find anything but they didn’t say if anything specific was missing or there was a gap in those years and only the files x-x have survived. I think they are in the archives, they should be, but apparently they were no results.
2. Exactly. Also I do not pay them for the research. So I don’t expect them to go the extra mile. Also not speaking Polish doesn’t probably help either. I just want to determine if anybody here who has more experience can estimate if it is worth it to go there in Person and look for possible files.
Thank you very much for the direction Michael. I will do that.
Do you happen to know if it is normal for the area that such a little amount of files survived ? Also are there other archives in Poland I could ask for more info ? For example, I suppose the authorities issuing passports had at least a file on each passport they issued or the pension found had a file on each pension they payed. I suppose that hapend on the level of the central gouvernement ? Do you have any clue if something like that survived and where to look it up ? Thank you so much.
