=== Local Civil Offices  ===
In Poland, records created by the local government less than 100 years ago—including birth, death, and marriage records—are kept in local offices. These records are not available to the public. For more information about these offices (which are comparable to county courthouses and town halls in the U.S.) and their records, see [[Poland Civil Registration|Poland Vital Records]].
You can get information about records kept at local civil offices by writing to them. See [[Poland Letter Writing Guide|Poland Letter Writing Guide]].[[Poland Language and Languages|Poland Language and Languages]] <br>
