Hellos Chris, Dziennik Chicagoski Death Notice Index 1890-1929: Surname Given name Death Date Notes Date of Notice Age Jagodzinski Franciszek -- mentioned: see Lukwinska, Julianna 19 Jun 1924 Jagodzinski Franciszek -- mentioned: see Kulik, Klara 28 Jun 1928 These listing are Polish obituaries posted in the Polish Newspapers Dziennik Chicagoski (The Chicago Daily Newspaper). It looks like Frank Senior's wife was Julianna Lukwinska, and he dies June 19, 1924. Don't know what to make of the second entry. It has a Clara Kulik mentioned in it. You can find these at this website: http://www.pgsa.org/dzien9029.htm. You can order a copy of the obituaries. Sometimes an obit will state where a person was born. I wish you much luck in your search.

I do not have any clues as to where they came from in Poland. They probably had a young daughter also named Julia when they immigrated. They had other children in Chicago including Mary, John, Frank, Jr., Joseph, Victoria, Josie and Anton. Anton was my grandfather. Coincidentally, Frank Jr. married a woman named Julia, perhaps Kulik. > > I would appreciate any help as to the origins of the name, where they may have come from, or any other information about the family in Chicago. > > Thanks, > Chris Berry > csb043052@comcast.net
