Hi,

I am trying to locate relatives of my father's paternal grandparents, Anton Gondek/1862 and Anna Mastalski/1868, baptized in Szczawnica Wyźna. Anton's siblings were John, Adelbert, Catherine, Marianne, Regina, Magdeline and Agnes. Anna's siblings were Joseph and Catherine (may be more). Anton and Anna immigrated to the USA (Pennsylvania, Wisconsin then Michigan) abt 1890 -1900.

I am also trying to locate relatives of my father's maternal grandparents, Adelbert Palka/? and Anna Bodzioch/1851 from Biadoliny Szlacheckie. Anna Bodzioch had several siblings, including Marianna, Valentine and Jakub. Adelbert Palka and Anna had a daughter, Sofia Palka/1888, who immigrated to Chicago in 1907 to work as a chambermaid at the Drexel Arms Hotel. Possible siblings were Agnes and Frank (who may or may not have left Poland).

My late uncle (a Roman Catholic priest), visited relatives in Poland in the 80s or 90s but unfortunately I do not have any information from his papers. I have several unidentified photographs dated lated 1800s early 1900s from Chicago and Poland that I would like share and perhaps identify. I am also interested in finding more family surnames of my ancestors.

Thank you.
