Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt at presenting the content of the files of VC.1 group from the Polish Underground Movement Study Trust in London and evaluation of their usability in genealogical investigation. VC.1 group was formed as a result of the activity of the Home Army’s Main Verification Commission active in years 1945 - 1949 in London, whose aim was to verify the former Polish prisoners of war from German oflags and stalags. The material which has been analyzed is mostly biographical in nature, although it may also be used in genealogical investigation. It can therefore be an interesting additional means of analyzing the lives of chosen representatives of the investigated family history.
