We think he was the father of Joseph John Bienek who was born in Germany in 1865. According to his naturalization papers he arrived in the US in 1880. Joseph married Jane Witherow about 1890. He then died in April, 1904 in Kittson County, MN. He had a brother Anton who lived in North Dakota and a sister Mary Annie whose married last name was Mulzof. They also lived in Kittson County. Urban is found in church records in Silesia and married Franciska Lamzka. They had children Maria, Magdalena, Anton, Rosalia, Johann, and we think Joseph.
