My grandmother was born Regina Partyka in Kamien, Poland in 1889. I have her birth certificate. Her parents were Joachim and Maryanna Bochanek Partyka. She came from Poland in 1908 and settled in CT. She came with a family named Skomro. She had a sister Victoria and brothers named Andrew, Peter and John. She said they stayed in Poland. Over the years I have not been able to find too much info about her side. I will be working on her side this year , so if I find anything I will e-mail you. Good luck with you research. Lois
