My new obsession. Anyone else into it?
With the records that are now available I was able to trace my ancestry in some cases back to the mid 1700s. Going back 10 generations, I can name 95 ancestors. In one case, I'm connected to a Rabbinic family (Tosfos Yomtov), and in that line I can trace my ancestry back over 1000 years to the Kalonymus family of Lucca, Italy.
My main resources are Geni.com, JRI-Poland, and JewishGen.
I'd be happy to help out anyone getting started, especially if their ancestry is Polish.
