My Grandmother was Petronela Pulczynski came to US in 1910. she was born in 1893. she had several brothers and sisters. a brother Albert, and a Sister who also came to US. A brother Sylvester and other sibelings that remained in Poland.
My Granfather was John Kupczyk. he was born in 1884 in Poland.

Hi fitnessguybill
Thanks for sharing last winter with us your wonderful family memento. Yes, we can see your grandparents Petronela and John-Jan on this beatiful picture, but we cannot help you for today, as you must find with the US databases their EXACT place of birth/origin in old Poland (as Russia, Prussia-Germany, and Austria-Hungary empires in the 19th century till WWI time). The reason is that all genealogical databases in Poland/Europe are basing on the exact parish/parish books location. Try to find this place with for eg with their naturalization papers (the Petition is the best one, as every immigrant was obliged to state his/her place of birth). The other sources are SS-5, obituary docs, their ancestral church records in the US after immigration. Also try to use very carefully EIDB - Ellis Island open database as on every ship manigest the LPR-Last Place of Residence in Europe, and/or POB-Place of Birth is given (to see EIDB you must be registrated, but it's free and easy), the EIDB search engine is:
http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/eidb/ellis.html
For eg with Pulczynski you have Petronella Pulczynski!!:
http://www.ellisisland.org/search/passR ... 1053150074
This EIDB record is given her origin as "Nissawa, Hungary". She was young 20 y old, and immigrated in 1912 (very close to your 1910). She is your?
And if yes, I can tell you sensational info: my Polish eyes see her origin "Nissawa" on this ship manifest as Nieszawa! - and this could mean the small town of Nieszawa located in present Poland!
Check also very carefully other Pulczynski/Pulczynska (suffux -ska for for all Polish female), and all Kupczyk's. Maybe some records would be of yours. Then, you can start full search in this part of Europe.
Good luck! - Powodzenia! |
