Posen High Schools Index

This database contains information extracted from high school records of communities which existed in the Province of Posen, today the Wielkopolska or Poznania region of Poland.

Special thanks go to Edward David Luft, who brought this project to PolishRoots, Angelika Ellmann-Krüger, Frau Helga Frenkler, who is pictured above holding some of the original volumes from which our data is extracted, Elyssa Kowalinski one of our major transcribers, and to all the other volunteers who have selflessly contributed many hours to this exciting effort.

URGENT!  Due to recent software upgrades at the ISP, search functions are not working.  PolishRoots is working on the required migration to ASP.NET. Once modifications are complete search functions will be back!!
