They came with three children: Frank,John, and Mary They had three children (William, Lucy, and Sophia) in this country - the first born in Westfield and the next two in Dunkirk. Would like any information on where they came from and how they ended up in Durkirk. With no information on the naturalization record - I am at a loss as to where to look. I have no idea what port they may have entered and no information on where in Poland they may have come from. Found naturalization on Thomas only - Nov. 17, 1896 in Mayville.
