The article discusses the basic methods and sources that can be used in the study of genealogy, taking into account the phenomena of mobility and migration. The specificity of the spatial and social mobility of the lower strata of the Old Polish society was presented. Despite the restrictions related to serfdom, the population made generally short movements, sometimes permanent in nature. It was mainly due to economic reasons related to the labor market. Moreover, attention has been paid to the durability of surnames and to how migration influenced their formation.

The history of many families has a tradition of ties with Krakow, the effect of which is the search for documents that confirm this. A search can be made on the Internet in printed materials, e.g. address books, published in Krakow from 1905, containing alphabetical lists of residents, lists of property owners, representatives of particular professions, offices along with the names of officials. The censuses of the population of the city of Krakow from 1850-1921, preserved in the resources of the National Archives in Krakow, are made available on the Internet on the websiteukajwarchiwach.gov.pl. Gradually, more and more archives are presented there, among others civil status files. However, due to the limitations of the possibility of publishing data on the Internet by state archives, some archival materials invaluable for genealogists are still available only in archival reading rooms, e.g. applications for issuing identity cards or files of inheritance cases conducted by courts. An important source for researchers are school files collected by the Archive and documentation concerning the course of employment, for example, of railway workers, teachers, notaries, doctors and officials.

The aim of this text is to draw attention to the most important sources for the history of refugees and displaced people (the so-called DPs) from Poland in the first years after the Second World War, created in connection with the activities and aid action of the international community towards these categories of Poles (including Polish Jews). The framework review of the sources shows that there are many archives, including many materials, relating to a total of over a million Polish citizens who found themselves outside their country of origin as a result of hostilities or in the first years after the war. These sources testify to the fact that the international community did not forget about Poles when they were in need and constituted the most numerous national group among all DPs and refugees in Europe, during the functioning of the international organizations UNRRA (1943–1947) and IRO (1947–1951). Finally, many of these materials make very valuable sources for genealogical research.

The aim of the article is to present selected types of printed sources of biographical information, showing that it is contained not only in biographical dictionaries. Various traces of human life can also be found in such publications as: parish books published in print; school management reports; lists of students or university graduates; lists of theses; address books of cities; telephone directories; street lists, publications about real estate owners; shematisms; lists of trade representatives; listings of business owners; industry directory books; activity reports or professional journals issued by organizations, associations or unions; spa guest lists; lists of participants in uprisings; lists of the injured; lists of repressed people; hourglasses, obituaries, mourning records; lists of personal losses from the years of war and occupation; cemetery guides. Selected examples of each of these types of sources show what kind of information they can contain. The second part of the article provides basic tips on how to search for such publications in the rich collections of the Jagiellonian Library, who and where can use the found materials.

Indexation of record books is one of the most important tasks related to genealogical research. Proper selection of the form, as well as the use of the appropriate form of indexation are the basic activities before starting the creation of the database, which is its final result. Thanks to this, you can find information about your ancestors very quickly. Indexation is an extremely difficult and arduous work, and during it we can come across many pitfalls that may result in entering incorrect data. The development of indexation, as well as the often accompanying digitization, are extremely important activities aimed at preserving and protecting record books, as well as civil status books from destruction.

The text is an attempt to create a mini-guide for genealogists looking for information about people who were prisoners of the former Nazi and German death camp KL Auschwitz-Birkenau. The article presents the most important groups of documents that may be useful in genealogical research. In addition, the basic search methods are also presented: from an internet search engine and collective studies to archival sources.

The Archives of the Krakow City Hall, located from 2018 in the new seat at Na Załęczu 2 has a collection of files of approximately 19,800 running meters. Among them are documents that are extremely helpful in conducting genealogical research. These include registration books, residents ‘registers, residents’ personal cards and ID envelopes with the records of issued identity cards. The collection of registration books is about 265 linear meters. The oldest of them come from the 1930s. The books were kept separately for individual buildings. They contain records regarding registration, residents’ personal data, information about the profession and position held, religion, nationality and attitude to military service. The registers of permanent residents, introduced in 1961, replaced the registration books. They were assumed separately for each apartment. They entered the real estate address, personal data of residents, the period of registration, the place of the previous registration and the place where the resident moved. In 1975 they were replaced by the Resident Personal Cards (KOM). The idea behind the Resident’s Personal Card was to assign it to a person, not an address. KOM included personal and registration data and, for the first time, the PESEL number. Successive addresses were entered on the card. The previous address of the resident was also entered. The collection of personal cards of residents has about 350 running meters. The set of evidence envelopes is an extremely valuable collection. By evidence envelopes, we mean all documentation related to the issuance of identity cards. The envelopes contain the name and surname of the owner, date of birth, PESEL number, series and number of the ID card. The envelopes contain old questionnaires, birth certificates, registration certificates, work certificates, photos and military documents. Old identity cards, such as pre-war ID cards and identity cards, have also been preserved. The documentation collected in the archive, consisting of registration books, registers, residents’ personal cards, and envelopes of ID cards, forms a collection of about 980 linear meters and is an excellent source for genealogical research, the more valuable that it is preserved in its entirety. The collected files have never been shredded, they are well preserved, organized and recorded.

For a genealogist, each birth, baptism, marriage and death certificate is a valuable source of research. It turns out, however, that genealogists in their work encounter obstacles related to the restriction of access to these sources. This “brake” is legal regulations that can effectively discourage a genealogist from continuing their research. The aim of this article is to present the legal issues of genealogical research, especially in terms of the practice of applying the law and emerging problems in jurisprudence. In her article, the author presented the currently existing legal regulations, which in some cases may hinder genealogists from accessing searches, including legal problems related to the EU Regulation on the Protection of Personal Data (GDPR) in force since May 2018. The article also presents the problem of access to genealogical research from its practical side, recalling the decisions of Provincial Administrative Courts and the Supreme Administrative Court.
