Post subject: Need Record Sources- Kokoszka- Zdziarzec and Krakow
My great uncle asked me to find information on his aunt, Julia Kokoszka. She was born/baptized 8 Dec 1895 in Zdziarzec, Poland. From what I know, she was the 9th of 12 children born to Joannes Kokoszka and his first wife Catharina Kurdrar (or Dazdzos, I find both last names listed on children's birth records). My great-grandfather asked Julia to come to the US with him in the early 1900's but she didn't want to. She was involved in the Catholic Church, but was not a nun, and wanted to continue her work with the church in Poland. I know she moved to Krakow and lived the rest of her life there. I was also told she lived to be about 100 (which would mean she died around 1995).
Is there any way to get additional records on her? She never married. My husband tells me there is an order in the Catholic Church for women who weren't educated enough to become nuns, but wanted to work for the church. Any idea what she might have been doing for the church and if there would be church records associated with her work?
