I live in CT and have recently gotten interested in finding out about my ancestors and family history on both of my parent's sides. All of my grandparents were born in Poland (only got to meet one of them). I have been told that none of them talked about the "old country" or even about their siblings. Data from Poland can be scarce. Since beginning my research on Ancestry, I have been able to connect with "cousins" from multiple branches of my tree either by DNA or by family surnames while continuing to find out more about my ancestors.
