Hi I am new to this site and am so glad to have found it. I looked up my maiden name on Ancestry. com to find that it has a jewish origin. Also a relative found that there were 4 Sekula's that were in Auschwitz Concentration camp. All my known relatives in the US and in Poland seem to be catholic. grandpa Julian Sekula I was told came from Nowy Sacz Poland and His parents were laurentius Sekula born 1850 Konclowa poland and His Mother Victoria Krok Sekula born 1859 Grodek, Poland. My great grandfather Laurentius Sekula's father was Michael Sekula born 1825 Biala Wiznia Poland. Was wondering if there is anyway to find out if these folks had Jewish orgins or lived in area's where it was mostly Jewish. I am curious to search more to see if I can find out anything but it seems that it might be impossible after what the nazi's did and I am thinking that the records were destroyed.
Was wondering if there is anyone on this site that may have some information or connection to the Sekula relatives that I have mentioned here. |
