Projekty genealogiczne Fundacji Kultury i Dziedzictwa Ormian Polskich

Abstract

Genealogical Projects of the Foundation of Culture and Heritage of Polish Armenians The Foundation of the Culture and Heritage of Polish Armenians located in Warsaw collects both original and copied birth certificate registries dated at the times from 17th to 20th centuries and coming from Armenian Catholic parishes. The Foundation catalogues and translates them from Kipchak, Armenian and Latin into Polish. Additionally, it collects information on grave inscriptions and photographs. All data is being stored electronically and published online. It serves the purpose of compiling genealogical trees of Armenian families living in Poland (over 5000 people in 9 generations) and creating an online biographical dictionary of Polish Armenians (WikiOrmianie, over 1200 biograms).
