* Marta's siblings Marian, Wladyslawa, Adam and Zofia were born in Dąbrowa k. Mławy prior to my Great-Great Grandmother's birth. After that, from 1892 to 1902 it appears that the rest of the children were born in the village of Niedzborz. Someone who could possibly be a distant relative stated that Marta's siblings were mostly married in the Strzegowo area, which might be true considering that Zofia and Wladyslawa were married in Strzegowo
* Birthplace, Marriage and Death information for Szczepan and Julianna Zielinski, My Great-Great-Great Grandparents, are currently unknown at this time. I have been told that Julianna's maiden name was very 'uncommon' for the area around Strzegowo.
* The fact that my Marta had any siblings besides Wladyslawa and Zofia were unknown mostly to our family as she never really discussed details of this. It is possible she could have disclosed details of family in Poland and their whereabouts to my Great-Grandmother or her sister, however unfortunately they are deceased.
* It is believed that Szczepan and Julianna Zielinski came from an area of Prussia and migrated to the Strzegowo area. However, this is not entirely sure, merely a suggestion from what I've heard.
* Located in Marta's Obituary in 1970 it lists a living sister, Genevieve Kaczorowski, her location only known as living in Poland
* There are several photographs from Marta's family in Poland which are dated around the 1950s/1960s. Location are unknown only that they are addressed to "Ciotka" indicating from one of her possible nieces/nephews
* My Grandfather communicated via correspondence through letters with either the Niece or daughters of one of Marta's siblings in Poland. The letters whereabouts are unknown as they were lost and when I was able to ask my Grandfather questions before he passed his memory was not able to recall where the location of this family is to this day.
Any help is greatly appreciated in helping me try to locate my family today as this would really mean a whole lot to my family. If anyone is located around this area and would be be interested in helping please let me know.
I will try to provide additional information if needed/requested
