Thank you for visiting my guest book. Thanks to those who have signed it, stating who you're looking for, and about your roots. Do you know the province or area in Poland your family was from? Did your relatives immigrate to America, another country, or is your family still in Poland? I love hearing other people's stories. I find it inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Julie

Message | Good morning, I live in Poland and I am from neighbourhood of Żywiec. I am historian. I investigate history of our region. Perhaps I found something in archives about people, which you described on blog. I am going to check it carefully. If I will find something interesting, I can send you photo of documents.
From my family I found out that sister of my great-grandfather probably emigrated to USA before World War II. She's name was Jadwiga Kubas. Unfortunately, I don't know where she settled in USA and what she did there. I know only. that she wrote letters and send gifts to my family after the war. I would find this letters. Maybe it will help me to know something about Jadwiga. I have one question - maybe you saw something about this woman? I know that search of information is not nearly possible now. But I leave information about Jadwig, which I know:
Jadwiga Kubas Date of birth: 27.09.1883 Place of birth: Szare (Milówka); Poland Father's name: Wawrzyniec Mother's name: Justyna
Maybe soon I will find something else.
And of course, If you are interested in information from archives - maybe about your family (before 1918), please write to me e-mail.

Hi Agnieszka, I will email you. Here is a possibility: A Jadwiga Kubas immigrated, arriving in Ellis Island 11 Oct 1910. I will email you a link to it. It looks like it says she is from Sczare, & it looks like it says she left the father you say. The handwriting is terrible. It says she is going to a cousin in Detroit, I think the name is Karol Capand. I'll see if I can find more and get back to you. Thank you for your offer to look things up! so generous! Warmest Greetings, from Virginia, in the United States. -Julie |
