| I recently found records of my grandmother's family in the late 1920's in France. It turns out they weren't French at all! Her parents (Joseph Warzecha, born 1897, and Ludwika Tomczyk, born 1901) are both listed as Polish. Her father's birthplace is listed as Dzierzkowice and her mother's (and grandmother's) birthplace is listed as Salamony. It seems they left Poland probably in the early 1920's. The census records I found only list these place names, and an internet search indicates these names can refer to a few different locations in Poland. Since it appears that Joseph and Ludwika went together from Poland to France, along with Ludwika's mother (Josefa nee Sibinski), they must have met and married in Poland and likely came from towns relatively close together.
Without being able to pinpoint locations, I can't even begin to look for birth or marriage records. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much! Tracy |

| Thank you soooo very much for this information!! I will begin with the website you provided. I would truly appreciate your help contacting the archives to inquire about the 1901 records. I can't speak a single word in Polish.
Thank you again for your help! Tracy |
