About the Tatra Area Research Group
The Tatra Area
Research Group (or T.A.R.G.) began in 1998 to help those researching
their family history from settlements in and around the Tatra
mountains of Northern Slovakia and Southern Poland. Its goal
is to compile information and aid in helping others make connections
to the past and present in this relatively unknown region of
the world.
Membership
in TARG is free. We ask from you only what we have asked the
hundreds of others who have joined thus far. Simply share with
us what information you know so we may share it with others in
the group. Some have lots of information, others precious little.
But by each sharing what they know, we are painting a more complete
picture of the families, the lives, the villages and region our
ancestors knew. Do you have stories to tell, village or family
names to list, old maps or photos full of clues to share? Our
free TARG e-mail newsletter
is where we relay such gems monthly. Visit the Contact
Page or our TARG Message
Posting Page if you would like to participate. Thank you.
