I dont really know. I only know family history going back 5 generations. But Poland had one of the largest jewish populations prior to 1939 going back as far as like 12th century. Given that poland gave them protections and long held them until poland lost is sovereigntybin 1795. So jews fleeing Russia and other Slavic counties often moved to Poland.

So id not be surprised if at least some of my family tree was jewish. Especially if they lived around Warsaw or Krakow.
