Edward W. Mitukiewicz

Ed Mitukiewicz is Polish by birth and American by choice. Ed is a mathematician and computer scientist by education, researcher and technology consultant by profession, and amateur cartographer and genealogist by coincidence. Ed has a particular weakness for old maps - rumor has it that Ed never met one he did not like. Ed worked as editor, translator and map consultant during the production of the 2015 “Raise the Roof” documentary film about reconstruction of the 18th century wooden synagogue of Gwozdziec. At recent genealogy conferences in Poland, Israel and United States Ed presented illustrative scenarios of using historical maps in genealogical research. Ed has been teaching Polish at CCAE since 2018.
