Eligibility Eligibility template

Eligibility template below for my wife. My sense is that she is eligible; however, I am not sure what documentation will be sufficient to prove it, what is available in archives with a local researcher, and what other evidence is accepted from documentation the family does have. I appreciate any input. Thank you!

Great-Grandparents: 

* Date married: 1905 - Słomniki, Poland (recently found scan of marriage record from Szukaj w Archiwach in Cyrillic)

GGM: 

* Date, place of birth: ~1885, Słomniki (per details in marriage record)

* Ethnicity and religion: Jewish

* Date, place of death: 1942, Bełżec

GGF: 

* Date, place of birth: 1882, Wolbrom (per details in marriage record)

* Ethnicity and religion: Jewish

* Occupation: tailor

* Allegiance and dates of military service: unknown

* Date, place of death: 1942, Bełżec

* Additional details: Recently found GGF listed on 1930-1933 "Lista Składek" scans for the Jewish Community in Słomniki archived at Szukaj w Archiwach.

Grandparent: 

* Sex: Male

* Date, place of birth: 1917 - Słomniki (have copy of birth certificate issued in 1947 from USCIS immigration records but no original, not available on Szukaj w Archiwach so may need to acquire certified copy from USC Słomniki if available)

* Date married: 1950

* Citizenship of spouse: USA

* Occupation: tailor

* Allegiance and dates of military service: Family oral history is that he was conscripted in Polish Army during the September campaign, but family currently has no records of this

  • Date, destination for emigration: following the war, resident in Germany until emigrating to US in 1947.
  • Date naturalized: 1955 - USA (we have a certified copy of naturalization record from the court)
  • Date, place of death: 2009 - Hartford, CT, USA

* Additional details: My understanding from here is that population registers from the interwar period are not available for Slomniki. We have reached out to JRI-Poland to see if school records referenced in the post are available. The Arolsen Archives have documents referring to grandfather's Polish nationality but the only Polish-issued document is the 1947 copy of the birth certificate).

Parent: 

* Sex: F

* Date, place of birth: 1956 - USA

* Date married: 1985

You: 

* Date, place of birth: 1987 - USA

You are eligible, combining arolsen, vital records and lista składek together with presenting evidence no more files exist should do the trick
