How to Use SEZAM

 

The SEZAM Database of the Polish State Archives is a great tool to locate holdings of many of the Archives within the current boundaries of Poland.

 

1- Enter the town name you are searching in Title of Fond/Name of Creator: box.

2- To limit the search to Evangelical (Lutheran) records, enter Ewangelickie after the and where you entered the town name. 

3- Select urzędy stanu cywilnego i akta metrykalne in the Category: drop-down list

 

This will bring up all holdings, regardless of the Archive, for the specified town.  It is also possible to broaden a search by entering the name of the district to see what holdings exist for adjoining locales.
