Willie,
I would like to continue our discussion in the forum section "Villages and towns of our ancestors' origins" -- Dzial near Czarny Dunajec in Malopolskie -- that Shellie started:
http://forum.polishorigins.com/viewtopic.php?t=433&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15
Perhaps other members who have ancestors from Dzial will join the discussion, share information, and find possible connections to your Dzial ancestors.
Ute

Stanislaw and Katarzyna Jasien are net new info for me. That's truly amazing. You're a wealth of information and it's so kind of you to share. You also have other information from my grandmother's side of the family posted here:

Willie,
I found your great-grandparents’ (Andrzej Zaremba’s and Anna Kedzierska’s) church marriage record of July 2, 1913, St. Ann Church, Chicago, and have the following information for you: Andrzej’s parents were Stanislaw Zaremba and Katarzyna Jasien, Anna Kedzierska's parents were Jan Kedzierski and Aniela Gorecka. Marriage witnesses were Jan Netz and Maryanna Kedzierska. Source: www.familysearch.org, Illinois, Chicago, Catholic Church Records, 1833-1925, St. Ann (Chicago), Marriages, 1912-1915
I also found your great-grandfather's obituary in the Chicago Tribune Historical Archive. Will write more tomorrow.

Ok, sure.

Both John and Andrew settled in Chicago.

John I know next to nothing about. The only other record I have is from the 1910 census which confirms his age 22, which gives a birth year of 1888. Other than that, it's family stories which say he died in WWI, or was sent back to Poland because he was sick. Stories are sketchy at best.

Andrew I have a bunch more on. He remained in Chicago for the remainder of his life. Born 10 Nov 1892, death 1 Mar 1969. Married Anna Kedzierski 2 July 1913 in St Ann's church. I have some family history on Anna as well, but for Andrew, once I found the place of his birth, I figured I was more or less a dead end until I can muster up a trip to Poland. I did see the grandmother Tekla on the manifest, but being not so familiar with Polish names, I wasn't sure if I had it right or not. I couldn't decipher the Uncle's name on the manifest.

Willie,
I had a look at the July 8, 1907 ship manifest and it indicates that Jan's and Jedrzej's last residence and contact abroad was their grandmother Tekla Zareba in Dzial and their destination in the US Chicago where they were going to join their uncle Mihal or Michal Zareba who lived at 893, W. 17th Street at the time. Their place of birth is given as Dzial in the ship manifest.

So, what you know already is that your great-grandfather was born in Dzial, had a grandmother Tekla Zareba in Dzial in 1907, and an uncle Mihal[y) or Michael Zareba who lived in Chicago in 1907, which is actually not so bad to start with.

If you like, give us a little more information on Jan/John and your great-grandfather Jedrzej/Andrew, e.g. their dates of birth and death, where they settled, names of spouses, etc. Perhaps we will be able to help you with your research.
