DNA and Genealogy Research: Simplified
Here is a great book to help you understand your DNA test results. I tried to stay away from using scientific terms and attempted to use my genealogy skills to make sense of the data.

Using my DNA results and basic genealogy skills, I solved a major mystery in my family tree with no paper trail or oral history. I describe the basics of each type of DNA test and why we should take each kind of test. I also compare the major testing companies. However, the critical value of this book is my explanation of how to overcome the scientific nature of the results by looking at your results using traditional genealogical sk...

My Polish Ancestors
My Polish roots are in the farm land northeast of Warsaw that was controlled by Russia in the 1800s. I have used church records from the neighboring Catholic parishes in Andrzejewo and Czyzew to trace my ancestors back to about 1730. Before I began my research I believed my grandparents were from peasant stock but the records that I found proved that their ancestors were landowners and minor nobles.The Zuchowski and Dmochowski family names are mentioned in early Polish history and were noble families who at one time owned large estates north of Czyzew. Over time the large estates were divided among the heirs until inheritance laws were changed to prevent the now small farms to be divided into smaller parcels. This change was one of the reasons for the large emigration of Polish workers to America to fuel the industrial development of America. Younger sons had to move off the farm after the oldest son inherited the land. With few jobs available in the farming communities, immigration was usually the best alternative. My grandparents were the youngest in their families and America was the land of opportunities for them.
