Ha! It's amazing the words I remember from my younger days spent in Poland. I used to walk around my sister's house picking things and saying "Co to jest?" That's how I improved my vocabulary. My Polish sister and I communicated for years using our own system - words, hand gestures, dictionary, pictures, and anything else we could think of to get our point across - including obviously - TELEPATHY.

That's right Bernadette, "trzepaczka" from the verb "trzepać" - to beat .

Trzepacz-ka

Hi - I was reading your post about your grandmother's name and I remember my sister in Poland beating a rug with an old fashioned carpet beater. It was a long handle and the end part which beat the carpet was sort of shaped like a 3 leafed clover and was woven out of some kind of wood or straw. She told me that was called a Trzepaczka.

For me Anastasia's maiden name looks like Trzepacz. It is much harder to guess her place of birth. I would take a guess that this is Raciniewo, but I am not sure of that.

Thanks Zenon!!

I'm attaching 3 documents:
Andrzej - Passport - page 1 and page 2
Ellis Island Manifast - summary (Note: my grandmother married Andrzej Karolak in Polland before arriving to U.S. I have no other records of birth certificate, marriage info, etc.

I have no relatives that know of any other information here in U.S!!

Someone else told me, her name from this document might be Trzepacz?
Again, previous maiden name or previous married name?

Again, any info regarding her or Andrzej would be appreciated!!

Thanks agaon,
Bob Karolak
