    3. Dear list purveyors My grandfather Valentine (Walenty) Lukowiak came to America around 1890 from somewhere in Poland/Prussia (possibly near Golejewko, Wielkopolskie ). He was born about January 18, 1866 and died in Macomb Co, MI August 25, 1946. He was married three times, having all of his children with the first wife, Katherine Rosinska (1869-1925). The 1920 census for Detroit, Wayne Co, MI lists the following children at home: ---Stella (25)--cigar maker at cigar factory , Joseph (23)--salesman in poolroom, Mary (21)--cigar maker in cigar factory, Celia (19)--inspector in auto factory, John--(Heine) (17)--helper in foundry, Alex (15), Antoinette (12), Frances (10), Edward (7), Leonard (9 mo) I have not been able to find any info on how Valentine came to America (I have searched many passenger lists), where he grew up in Europe or anything about his ancestors. Any insight into the history of my grandfather that you might be able to provide would be very much appreciated. Charles Chinoski-Chase
