Why was FEEFHS created?


Latest Update: 4 May 2002

The map of Central and Eastern Europe map continues to fragment within modern political borders and then coalesce along older ethnic or historic borders. As a result, large ethnic minorities exist in every Central and East European country.

The fall of the "Iron Curtain" has opened exciting new possibilities for genealogical research. But complexities arise from past and present border changes. They have created difficult record access problems. This in turn makes East European genealogical research much more complicated.

A multi-national group was needed to solve the challenging genealogy problems presented by the many national borders and the incredibly diverse number of East European languages.

The Federation of Eastern European Family History Societies (FEEFHS) was established in June 1992 at Seattle Washington to help solve these problems.
