Galician Families

Families in Galicia

While searching for my family ancestors, I have mapped several surnames from Galicia (and Poland), mainly since the beginning of the 19th century.

The main sources are: Yad-Vashem, JRI, FTJP, and collected information from the descendants.

The visitors are welcome to add/correct by sending me their data.

The Biegeleisen, Grunbaum, Koschitzky, Majer, Schriber, Silbiger, and Wulkan families in Oswiecim married among themselves more than once. This page presents and gives links to the data of these families.
