Iggy's Genealogy Homepage

Howdy! Welcome to the page of my new found obsession and addiction. Genealogy: The process of searching out one's family roots. It really is a fascinating field of study. There is just so much information out there... you just have to know where to look. So I have put together a list of some of the sites I have been frequenting. I hope you enjoy them, and good luck in your research (if you are brave enough to make the journey and climb your own tree!)

I have also created a lookup chart to help identify the relationship between two people.

• Borawick, Borowick, Borwick, Borovik (from the region surrounding Grodno in present day Belarus)
• Biel (Poland or maybe Germany)
• Ichniowski, Ichnoski, Ichnowski, Ichniewski, Ichniovsky (Lipnica Murowana, Bochnia, Poland)
• Krajewski (Lipnica Murowana, Bochnia, Poland)
• Polek (Lipnica Murowana, Bochnia, Poland)
• Manzella (Isnello, Palermo, Italy)
• Scelsi (Isnello, Palermo, Italy)
