bircza online lists

information

In research on Bircza, I have come across many useful lists of residents, survivors, and more. These lists are of great use to genealogists and other researchers. I have organised as best I can and posted them here. Browse the lists by using the index at right, rather than scrolling down, since some of the lists are larger and are located on separate pages. Some, like the commerce listings, were donated graciously by various individuals, whom I thank for their kind help. Likewise, if you have information, please share it with the rest of the Bircza researcher community by contacting me.

polish business directory, 1929

This is a list of individuals by their professions, living in various towns throughout Poland in 1929, from a business directory (Ksiega Adresowa Polski) compiled that year. The original document was written in Polish (and French), and I have provided translation of the occupational terms below. Almost all given names were abbreviated, however, a majority of them are easily discernable (for example; Stan.—Stanisław, Wł.—Władimir; Ch.—Chaim; D—Dawid). The entire directory has been indexed at JewishGen, and is accessible here.
