BaSIA contains 6,747,130 records from over 700 places in western Poland!

About the Project

The BaSIA project, i.e. the 'Archival Indexing System Database', was created for a wide circle of genealogists and researchers of the history of Greater Poland in the 18th–20th centuries (although it also contains older information). Through a friendly interface, it gives users access to a database of indexes prepared by volunteers from materials kept, among others, in state and church archives. In it you can find the surnames of the persons you are looking for, links to scans of vital records and other information that helps to identify families, places and the basic facts of their history. The database is built with the ASIA application ('Automatic Archival Indexing System'), which above all allows archival records to be indexed in a friendly way, and at the same time acts as an intermediary in the process of indexing and publishing its results online.
Everyone interested is welcome to take part in the project.
