Who Is Frank Skorina and What Can You Find About Him on skorina.com?

Updated

Frank Skorina is the person who registered skorina.com and maintains the Skorina family home page. The site itself describes him as the one who "registered skorina.com before you could," and it credits him with doing "all of Frank's hard genealogy work" on the family tree. If you are looking for Frank Skorina, the most direct place to start is the family tree section of skorina.com, which traces how the Skorinas on the page are related.

What the site says about Frank Skorina

The available page content is brief, but it establishes a few concrete facts:

  • He registered the domain. The site opens by addressing other Skorinas who might be "mad at Frank because he registered skorina.com before you could."
  • He did the genealogy. The Family Tree section is described as "all of Frank's hard genealogy work," with the claim that "there are more Skorinas than you can imagine."
  • He is part of a listed family group. The site's keywords and description name Jane, Pam, Frank, Holly, Megan, Erik, Matt, and Russell, along with friends.

Beyond those points, the page does not provide a biography, birth date, location, or profession for Frank Skorina. Anyone expecting a personal profile will not find one here.

What you can actually find on skorina.com

The site is organized around a small set of family pages rather than a single profile of Frank. The main sections are:

Section What it contains
Family Tree Frank's genealogy research, showing how the Skorinas on the page are related
Cosmonaut Training A photo tour of Jane Skorina's week of cosmonaut training in Moscow in June 2000
Jane & Pam Family photos from throughout the years

The page also notes that the last update was January 20, 2006, so the content reflects that period rather than anything recent.

Linking your own Skorina page

The site explicitly invites other Skorinas to connect their personal pages. According to the page, if you have a personal web page you would like linked from skorina.com, you can send an email describing it. If it "looks friendly," they will add a link. The page also says they may be able to help with site design if you need it.

The practical steps are:

  1. Have a personal web page ready, or at least a clear idea of one.
  2. Email the site with information about it.
  3. Wait for a response — the page states links are added at their discretion based on whether the site "looks friendly."

There is no stated cost, form, or account requirement mentioned on the page, and no pricing information appears anywhere in the available content.

What is not on the page

A few things are worth flagging so you do not go looking for them:

  • There is no contact form, only a reference to sending email.
  • There is no detailed personal history of Frank Skorina beyond the domain registration and genealogy work.
  • There is no indication of how current the family tree is beyond the 2006 update date.

If your goal is genealogy research on the Skorina name, the Family Tree section is the relevant starting point. If your goal is to reach Frank Skorina personally, the site offers only the email route described above.
