The 1935 Declaration of Intention for Gottlieb Schafransky said he was born 29 Oct 1858 in KRONAW, Germany. His nationality was German. He married 1 Nov 1885 in SIPSHAW, Germany. His last foreign residence was LIPSHAW, Germany. He immigrated from BREMERHAFEN, Germany to Baltimore, Maryland on 3 Dec 1888 on the Ex S.S. Hermann. I presume the town names are actually spelled differently than what appears here as I could not find them on a map. I found him on the Bremen to Baltimore ship list. Not sure where the other towns are. I do not know the Krzyzanski or Janiszewski surnames. Sharon < Do you know the area in Poland that they came from?

Our family group came from Warsaw and just northwest of it, so probably no connection. We can always hope.
