Thomas Bankoske b.1849 (Bankowski, Bunczkowski, Binkowski, etc.) and his wife Mary Jaguszewski immigrated from "German Poland" (on some documents called Poland or Germany) around 1884. They settled in Dunkirk New York to work in the Brooks locomotive plant. Do not know where they came from or what port they entered. They had three children when they came to the U.S. ( Frank, John and Mary) and then had three more (William, Lucy and Sophia). They were Catholic. >From some people that know the area of Dunkirk - I understand that most of the Poles coming over at this time period came from Krakow and Padow areas. I have been unable to find a town named on any documents. Any ideas? Cathy Bankoske cbankoske@gmail.com
