How Our Forum Works
The level of activity of our open discussion forum on Polish ancestry and genealogy is dependent on your participation. Feel free to pose questions to the community and to respond to questions of others. Try to avoid "issue" oriented subject matter as this distracts for our goal of "helping" each other and serves no useful purpose here. A voice/text chat capability is available to you for real time group or private discussions. We also have a web site which you may contribute to with articles, data resources, or special links to resource sites on Polish heritage.
Membership
Membership to the forum is "free" and by joining you can post and reply to messages on all the public Delphi forums. Once you are a member, go to the Message board and post your surnames in the Surname Specific folder. Enter your surnames in the Subject Title, this will make them visible to viewers when browsing. Use the message body to introduce yourself and your surname family providing enough specifics so we can begin helping you where we can. We encourage you be an active participant, but most of all, we want you to enjoy your experience here.

Note to members:
Surnames: If your surname family and community is not listed on the ATPC home page and should be, please advise the host.
Photo pages: Advise the host if you are interested in having your own ancestral photo page. This is an excellent way to share this information with family and friends while providing further exposure of your surames. |
