Are you curious about your Family History and want to know more, but just don't have the ability or time to do the research yourself? Would you like to discover what interesting things might have happened to your Ancestors?

How much do you know about your ancestors? Were they pioneers, entrepreneurs, immigrants looking for a better life or just for religious freedom? What challenges did they face, what was their day-to-day life like? Do you know what motivated them to come to America?

Do you look like your ancestors? What characteristics or traits have you inherited from your ancestors? And what can they teach you about yourself and about your own life patterns and choices?

These are some of the questions that encourage us to gain more knowledge about our ancestors. Are there additional questions that have motivated you to explore your family history?

If you are curious about who your ancestors are and what places and events shaped their lives, then you have come to the right place. Genealogy research can help you learn about your family's unique history, traditions, origins, and how those things led to your life.

Allow The Genealogy Assistant be your guide on a voyage into the past. The Genealogy Assistant offers a number of genealogical and historical research services that can be tailored to meet your needs to can help you in the search for your ancestors. For us the reward is in the journey, whether we are researching your ancestors or our own.

The Interactive Science Center in Torun.

With a chance of rain today we opted for some inside activities and decided to go to the "Centrum Nowoczesności" an interactive science center made for kids, but us grownups had just as much fun or more than the kids did. This science center is in an old mill building which has been renovated & put to good use. The same has happened in New England, where they have renovated old mills and turned into useful space.

Surprisingly things where written in both English & Polish, so if you were visiting the area and want to take your kids to have fun, there will not be a language barrier, but I don't thiink the kids will worry about that, they will just have fun.
