Charles, I will do some checking, as my mother-in-law is related to the Polks. She is a Susalla, and a descendent of Francis Susalla, one of the first settlers and purchasers of land in Paris Township. (He probably came with Francis Polk.) I have a recent obituary on Gladys (Susalla) Cook which states that after they settled in Canada and helped with the railroads, the men migrated to Michigan where they proceeded to clear the land and put up log cabins. Once this was accomplished, they returned to Paris Township with the women and children. My father-in-law was a Cook, original name of Kucharczyk. Please feel free to contact me at my email address.

My gr-gr-grandfather, Francis (Franz) Polk, was one of the founders of Parisville in the "Thumb" of Michigan. Parisville is, arguably, the first Polish community founded in the US. Francis Polk was born in Boronow, Lubliniec, Poland, April 27, 1812. He married Josepha Slawik, September 14, 1835, in Dembowa Gora, Lubliniec, Poland. In the early 1850s, Francis and his family left for North America, arriving in Quebec---I'm not sure how they got there. Shortly afterword, they settled in Ontario (Canada West), in/near a town named Paris (hence the eventual name Parisville in Michigan). While in Ontario, Francis and other Poles helped the Canadians build several of their railroad systems. In what was probably late 1854 or early 1855, Francis and a couple of others emigrated to Michigan, founding the town of Parisville. I have not been successful in finding out how they got to Quebec, any information concerning the lifes and times of the Poles in Paris, Ontario, or how they got to Michigan. If you could help me gain insight about these travels and times, it would be very much appreciated Franz's parents were Andreas Polk [b. Abt1766--probably Boronow, Lubliniec, Poland] and Marianna (Geüssler) Geisler [b. Abt 1774--probably Boronow, Lubliniec, Poland]. I would like to learn more about these parents and hopefully their ancestors. Thank you. Charles Chase

Peggy, After rereading your post from Digest #321, I see that you do not mention the name of your grandmother who arrived in 1898 at Ellis Island nor that she was related to the Dobrydnia family. If you would provide the surname of the family you seek and the link to your grandmother's manifest, perhaps we can help - now that we have found the information for the post you cited from br38y about Dobrydnia who was also from Orzechowa. You can use the Steve Morse gold form search to find immigrants from Orzechowa as well as other family members. I find no one from exact spelling or sounds like Orzechowa using that method, so the name of your grandmother would be helpful. http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/EIDB/ellis.html (white form) http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/eidb/ellisgold.html (gold form) As Tina indicated, documents in the US are your first recourse in searching for information. Often, our searches have to be for related family members, when we can find nothing on the person in our direct line. Their naturalization papers, death certificates, Social Security applications, etc., may yield information in this sideways search.

I go to Poland a couple of times each year to do family research.  When in Warsaw, I stay at the Marriott becomes it is centrally located.  Is the village Lodziajek that you are looking for Lozdziaja now Lazdijai in Lithuania close to the border of Poland and the town of Sejny?  If so you will not be able to take a rental car from Poland into Lithuania.  I had a similar experience one year.  I drove from Warsaw to Sejny and then hired a cab driver to drive me to the town in Lithuania.  I paid him $100 for the entire day. It was a days journey for me to drive from Warsaw to Sejny. Gas is very expensive in Poland, the roads are not very good and the Poles drive worse than the Italians, cars pass one another with just inches to spare.  But if this is the only way to get to your villages than do it.  It is worth all of the trouble. September is a lovely time in Poland, but remember the seasons change earlier in Poland than here in the US.  Trees will be changing color by the first of September. -----Original Message----- From: Dickdoms@aol.com To: polandbordersurnames@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, 26 Jun 2007 12:22 pm Subject: [PBS] Help for Poland trip I have booked a trip to Poland for September, 2007.

Peggy, If this is your family, note that both Izador and Anna had been the US prior to 1922; the dates are given. They were going to Anna's father, Jan Daszkiewicz in Philadelphia in 1922. There is a manifest for Jan Deskievicz, married, going to Philadelphia in 1906: http://www.ellisisland.org/search/shipManifest.asp?pID=102247011377 Perhaps a search at ancestry.com would yield previous immigrations to the US of Izador and Anna.

There is an Orzechowka village in the old wojewodstwo Lomza.  It is on the border of the Biebrzanski Park close to the town of Rajgrod and near a large lake.  It appears that there is nothing between the village and this lake.  So you have the lake on the one side of the village and the park on the other side.  The village is just south of the city of Augustow.  -----Original Message----- From: Mary Snow <marysnow@bellsouth.net> To: polandbordersurnames@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, 26 Jun 2007 11:16 pm Subject: Re: [PBS] Dobrydnia from Orzechowa There may be only one exact spelling Dobrydnia from Orzechowa at Ellis sland.

Dick, I rented a car on all my trips to Poland. I use Local Rent a Car (LRC). There are many places to visit in Warsaw. Just Google and you will find many things to do and places to visit. If you speak Polish you will be fine. If not get someone to help it will make life much easier on you. Someone said most speak English not true in the country side. If they are 30 or older they will speak Polish. Have a good trip and enjoy the country. Jim On Jun 26, 2007, at 6:22 PM, Dickdoms@aol.com wrote: > I have booked a trip to Poland for September, 2007.

Hello Peggy, Thank you for giving a little more information. Note that the name DOBRYDNIA or place name of Orzechowa do not exist. In 1990 and 2002, there were no people in Poland with the DOBRYDNIA surname, however there were 206 adults in 1990 and again 206 in 2002 in Poland. There were 10 places listed at http://mapa.szukacz.pl named Orzechowo. There are 20 places listed, which begin with the letters Orzechow. It looks like you are going to need to find some record, which will give you another place name, like the gmina (administrative district), powiat (county) or wojewodztwo (province). I know must be very frustrated with your search, but there has to be something somewhere, that will give you another clue. Please tell us what documents have you f ind in the in US? Also, were there any other relatives of hers, who also came to this country?

Dick, my advice would be for you to find a local Latter Day Saints and get the films for the villages you named. they try to find your ancestors before going there. if you do, make a chart and bring it with you. If you make contact with family in those towns, they will want to see the connection and they will be able to fill in blanks once they can see the line. wish i were going again. :) cannot go until most likely 2008 or 2009. hope you find family and get to meet them. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

I wrote to the Polish Archives to ask them to do research for me, and they wrote back telling me that there are 12 towns in Poland with the name of Orzechowa and that I would have to know which town she came from before they can do any research for me. I don't know which Orzechowa she came from so I was unable to find out anything about her prior to coming to the U.S. Peggy Leva _________________________________________ Check your Email accounts at http://www.MyEmail.com Login from home, work, school.

I have booked a trip to Poland for September, 2007. I will fly into Warsaw and work from there to find possible relatives and information about both my parents who immigrated to the United States separately from different parts of Poland and met and married in Erie, PA in 1913 and later moved to Milwaukee in 1917 or 1918. My father, Wadilslaw (Walter) Ladislaus Domalewski named his parents to be Stanley Domalewski and Michalene Leskowski on his Social Security Application. He reportedly came from the area of Poland close to Lithuania. My father's draft registration shows his birthplace to be Lodziajek, Poland. My mother, Anna Grabowski Domalewski, named her parents to be Frawzisek (Frank) Grabowski and Alexandra Zamersoski Grabowski. My mother's Naturalization papers show her birthplace to be Wodka Piaseczna, Poland which, I believe, to be close to the border with Germany. Essentially, other than the above information, I am flying blind. What can I find in Warsaw? Best method of travel in Poland? Any other help thatd anyone can give me. All help will be appricated.

I'm trying to find Naturalization records from Cook County, Illinois, but they require the below information for a search. All I have are the names, nothing else. Would anybody have a sugesstion on how to find the rest or know of any paid searches in Chicago. The persons name, date of naturalization, court, and petition number.
