Sniecinski the I. My Great Grandfather was Frank Sniecinski and my Great Great Grandfather is Vincent Sniecinski.I just started researching my family history this Sunday and I am interested in any information you may have to fill in my family tree blanks. I was born in Saginaw Michigan on March 15, 1977. We had a family business on Webber St in Saginaw called Flowers by Roman started by Roman M. Sniecinski the first. Roman Sniecinski the first at some point in time after opening the business changed his name to Smoder and named my Father Herbert with Smoder as the last name and his older son Roman M. Sniecinski the 2nd. So we have both names in our family. Smoder was completly made up by Roman as to why I am not sure. Please contact me ASAP so we can talk. Thanks
