Family and ancestral heritage in the resources of the State Archives in Warsaw

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article “Family and Ancestral Heritage| in the Resources of the State Archive in Warsaw” is to present the examples of developed archival collections found in the resources of the State Archive in Warsaw, classified in the archival records as “private archives and heritage”. In the content of the text the author raises many issues related to the unique nature of the content of such archival collections and the challenges associated with their organization in accordance with applicable archival regulations. Three family collections were used for the analysis: the Pawłowski family a rchive (association 72/3843/0), the Kroha family archive (association 72/1285/0), and the Dmochowski family archive (association 72/3876/0). Family histories were discussed in the light of the recorded files and commemorative docu­ments, using additional source studies as contexts as a part of that analysis.
