He came to Ellis Island in 1907 and settled in Chicago. He married Helen Zelazo, (also born in Poland, February 1896), on February 22, 1919. They had one son Richard Kasprzyk, born in October 1926. Richard later changed his name to Kasper. John Kasprzyk left the family when my dad was about three years old and never returned.
