...How doth the City sit solitary, 
That was full of people!
How is she become a widow!
She that was great among the Nations,
And princess among the provinces,
How is she become tributary!
My eyes do fail with tears,
For the destruction of my people;

Arise, cry out in the night,
Pour out thine heart before the Lord,
Lift up thy hands toward Him
For the life of thy young children,
That faint for hunger
In the top of every street...
Lamentations of Jeremiah--
1:1; 2:11; 2:19.

Jewish Records Indexing - Poland Projects

There is currently an ongoing JRI-Poland Shtetl CO-OP Initiative for Piotrkow Trybunalski. Contact  Shtetl CO-OP Leader Marla Waltman Daschko for further information.  Many indices to 19th century Piotrkow Trybunalski Jewish vital records are currently in the JRI-Poland searchable database.

The JRI-Poland Polish State Archives (PSA) Project is an ongoing project to obtain indices to late nineteenth-century Jewish vital records not microfilmed by the LDS. This involves the years 1889 and later for Piotrkow Trybunalski. For further information about this project, contact Piotrkow Trybunalski PSA Town Leader Shirley Rotbein Flaum . Updates to this project may be viewed at  JRI-Poland Polish State Archives Project Status page (click "Piotrkow Trybunalski" in the drop-down menu).

Tenant Registers

Tenant registers are lists of permanent residents registered in a particular town, and are similar to census records. Tenant registers for the town of Piotrkow Trybunalski for the years approximately 1872 to 1931 are housed in the Piotrkow Branch of the Polish State Archives. The best way to research tenant registers is by hiring a professional researcher to visit the archives in person.
