This fall I am the coordinator of FEEFHS / PGSM's three day event. The Federation of East European Family History Societies (FEEFHS) and The Polish Genealogy Society of Michigan (PGSM) are co-sponsoring the 2004 International Conference "What Is Past Is Prologue". Back by popular demand is Matthew Bielawa, an expert in Galician research. We are also proud to host Kasia Grycza, a professional Polish genealogist and guide. Kasia is from Poznan and has extensive experience in all regions of Polish research. Kasia speaks English, Polish, Russian and German. We have MI Lt. John Cherry as a lunch speaker. He will be attending to receive his Polish pedigree. His great grandfather is from Poznan. I hope you will agree we have a great range of speakers and topics.
