Surnames: Socha, Zimowski, Yanasak, Mankowski, Mrowicki, Rozmiarek, Wesniewski Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/hdC.2ACI/1992 Message Board Post: Hi, I am trying to find more information on the Socha family from the village of Bnin, Poland (SE of Posnan). Here is what I have: Agnes Zimowski (Szimowski?) married Andrew Socha, they had 8 children: Antoni (Anton), Francisek (Frank), Marcin (Martin), Jan (John) - b. abt 1883, Marya (Mary), Magdalina (Madalin), Jadwiga (Hedwig) - b. 15-Oct-1879, and Stanislawa (Stella) - b. abt 1894. Jadwiga is my great-grandmother who married Jan Francisek Janaszak. The other chiildren, from what I know, all stayed in Poland. This is an excerpt from my grandma's brother regarding the family - not all may be correct though: "...Anton was the oldest of mother’s (Jadwiga) brothers. In the First World War in 1914, he was captured by the Russians and taken to Siberia where he died. (For those who may not know, Western Poland was, at the time, under German rule and Anton served in the German Army). Frank and his wife died at home. They had five children: John, Chester, Marcel, Stanley, and Antonet. Martin and his wife were both gone. They had 9 children: Mary – living in France; Frank – died in the war; John – killed by the Gestapo; Casmir – died; Stephan is in Posnan; and the whereabouts of the other three were unknown – Felix, Sylvester, and Sigmond. "Of the four brothers, only John was left (in 1962). His wife had dies long ago, and he was living with his son’s family in the old homestead. John also served in the German army during the First World War. He was taken prisoner and spent most of the war in a prison camp in France. He said he did not mind being a prisoner there; it was better than being in the front lines. Also, he learned to speak French. John and his wife had ten children – three boys and seven girls. One of the boys died, all others are living in the area. "Mary, the oldest of mother’s sisters had a chance to go to America about the same time that our mother went. Instead she decided to marry a farmer – a widower with eight children. His name was Mankowski. They had 13 more children; three of who died. The family lived on a 90-acre farm; one daughter still lives there. The daughter said her mother died in December 1961; her father a few years before. She also said that none of the children wanted the farm. The youngest son, who was on furlough from the army, was willing to take it but his fiancé told him she wanted no part in the old house and barns. "Magdalin is the one that was on the round metal frame picture that mother had. Magdalin married a railroad man named Mrowicki. They had eight children, two of whom are living in their parents’ two-family home. "Stella, the youngest of mother’s sisters was married to a man names Rozmiarek. They had four children; three girls and one boy. Stella’s husband died some time ago and she is living on a farm with one of her daughters. The farm is 35-acres. Besides farming, the daughter’s husband, Felix Wesniewski, also works for the railroad..." Any help would be appreciated.

My grandmother was Josephine Brzostowski Plominski, she lived around the Wilkes Barre, Pa. area and was married to Stanley Plominski back in 1908. This is my father's family. I do not have alot of info on my Grandmother Josephine. She was suppose to have come from Ostrolenka, Poland in 1907 with her brother Joseph, or perhaps spelled Josef, through Ellis Island, but I can't find them listed anywhere. She settled around the Wilkes Barre, Pa. area...and Joseph (Josef) was suppose to have gone to NY...in or around Buffalo. I would love to find his family...and perhaps they could shed some light on my exhausting search. Grandma Josephine died in 1970 I believe and my father passed away in 1986. Grandma Josephine lost her husband Stanley Plominski in 1929, but she stayed in Pennsylvania and worked and raised her chil! dren. When the children grew up, a few of the boys changed their names to Palmer...because of the 1930's being so clickish and Polish people were not accepted as easily as today. Stanley and Josephine's children were Stanley Plominski Jr; Estelle (Essie); Helen; Zigmond Plominski, and the rest of the boys took the last name of Palmer. They were -- Walter, Edward, Matthew (or nickname Max -- this was my father), and Charles. Charles, or Uncle Charlie to me, moved to NYC and for a long while owned the restaurant at the bottom of the Empire State Building. Uncle Stan & his wife moved to Connecticut and started a restaurant that grew to be pretty famous. And my Dad moved to the Bronx and stayed with his sister Essie & husband Bill for awhile, then he joined the CCC Camps and traveled to eastern PA, where he ended up settling. If any of this is familiar, please let me know! I am so anxious to find Joseph's family...and learn more about mine! Thanks, Donna My ema! il is... daisyladey@velocity.net

His father's name would have been Andrzc Pawlak. Sometime in 1948 or shortly thereafter their home & barn burned (something about have electricity installed from the REA) and they moved to a farm in Wisconsin. Anyone heard a story similar to this?
