Reply with quote

Hi all,

Jaworski is obviously a very common last name in Poland, but I'm looking for relatives; here's what I have:

My great-grandfather, Feliks Jaworski, was born in 1872 -1874 in Grzymki. Parents' names (from his marriage record) were Franciszek "Franz" Jaworski and Barbara Lewandowska. I believe Grzymki is part of Romany parish. I did have a member of this forum (thank you, Adam!) check his scans of Romany parish from this period, but he did not find a hit (and there are some gaps). He suggested trying Przytuly as well (near Romany), but I'd definitely need help with this. To my knowledge, Felix was Roman Catholic.

My great-grandmother, Wiktorja Kutner, was born December 24, 1880 in Skloty. Parents' names (from her marriage record) were Stanislaw Kutner and Rozalia Sobchinskaya. I believe Skloty is part of Nowe parish. Thus far, I cannot locate any information leading to Wiktorja's birth record. To my knowledge, Wiktorja was Roman Catholic, but I'm starting to wonder if she may have been Jewish faith.

Some background information: Feliks was a harness maker who married Wiktorja Kutner in 1901 at NMP church in Lodz, Poland. They had 2 children in Poland: Zofia (born 1902, died 1903) and Helen (born 1904). Emigrated to US in 1904 and 1906 and settled in New York City; had 4 more children. Feliks died in 1932 in NYC; Wiktorja died in 1963 in NYC.

Feliks was one of at least 3 siblings:

Prakseda Jaworski: born circa 1862 in Poland, married Ignatz Lekowski, and emigrated to the United States from Turek, Poland in 1901 with her husband and children; settled and lived in New York City. Prakseda died in 1926 in NYC.

Roman Jaworski: born circa 1874 in Poland; made one voyage to the United States in March 1911, and the last address of residence in Poland was with his father, Franz Jaworski, in Lodz, so it would appear that Franz was alive after 1910.

In trying to research Felix, Wiktorja, and their parents, I'm hitting huge walls and seeking any family members or any members of the forum who may be able to assist. Please let me know if you can help - I would GREATLY appreciate it. This is extremely important to me, and I thank everyone very much who has tried to help thus far.

Thank you!

Matt
