Research notes My dad became an orphan at 2 1/2 years of age.  His father was Jan Purwin B: about 1883 in Wojewodzin, Poland, Russia.  His mother was Wladyslawa, Kosakowska, B: about 1891, Shroda-Ruda, Poland, Russian. My grandfather immigrated to America approximately 1908. His mother was Wiktorya Wasilewska. My grandmother's parents were: Josef Kossakowski and Antonia Liszewska.  That is all I know about my Polish family.  As an orphan, my dad had no information expect the names on records in St. Anthony's Polish Church in Jersey City.  Desperately looking for any information.  I have been doing family research for eight years and have been able to go back past the 1600's for my mother's family and confirm that my 9th Great Grandfather commissioned the Mayflower.  I thank you for any information.
