His grandfather was Anton Kolakowski who I believe came to America in the 1880's. He was around 16 years old. He came with his mother, Theodasia (spelling). Documents show that he was born in Radzanowo (sp) Poland, which I believe is near Plock. His father, Hipolite (sp), died before they came to America. I am looking for any Kolakowski's from that area that might give me some links. Supposedly he had one sister that stayed, as she was married. I believe her name was Anestasia (sp).
