The Pysyk Family of Mikolajowice - About 1750 to 1904



This tree shows the results of my research with the Mikolajowice Roman Catholic Parish records.

It shows the ancestors of my Great-Grandmother Victoria Pysyk. She was born on May 5, 1890 and baptized on May 11, 1890. Her father was Joannes Pysyk and her mother was Marianna Borgenicht. Marianna was born Jewish but converted to Catholicism in order to marry Joannes.

Victoria left Mikolajowice in 1904. She departed from Bremen on the SS Kaiser Wilhelm II and arrived at Ellis Island on September 27, 1904.

She married Andrew Kosienski in St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Norwich, Connecticut on February 4, 1907.

My grandmother, Emilia Kosienski, daughter of Andrew and Victoria, was born on August 21, 1925 in Meriden, Connecticut and baptized on September 13, 1925 at St. Stanislaus Roman Catholic Church in Meriden, Connecticut. She married Robert Szymaszek on May 25, 1946 in Meriden, Connecticut.

Thanks!

Thanks to all who helped me decipher the records from Mikolajowice that I found! I will soon be posting the results of my Pysyk Family research.

Introduction

Hello everyone,
I started this Blog for a couple of reasons. First, to have a space to post pictures of records that I have found during my genealogy research so that others with more experience can help me decipher them. Second, to have a place to keep everyone (both family and friends) up to date with what I've found, because the best part of doing research of this nature is being able to share it. Enjoy!
