SPOTLIGHT ON...
The Foundation covers Eastern Europe in its ‘broadest, most inclusive sense’. Shown here is Kraków, Poland
Looking for help researching your roots in Eastern Europe? Head west – to Salt Lake City in the height of the dry Utah summer. There, you will find the largest genealogical repository in the world, the FamilySearch Library, as well as a team of experienced researchers who are dedicated to helping others find out what they can about their Eastern European ancestry.
The Foundation for East European Family History Studies, also known as FEEFHS, has a conference every summer in Salt Lake City, based in the hotel across the alley from the library. It’s possible to go from a conference session to a library computer (or microfilm reader) in a matter of minutes.
