My great aunt was named Anna Wisniewski. According to her granddaughter she came through Ellis Island May 30, 1905. The ship manifest lists her as coming with her sister Stefania, and her brother Jan. The were going to Detroit to be with their father Joseph. Anna had an older sister named Catherine (my grandmother) who lived in Milwaukee. Catherine's death notice lists a brother named Stanley but it does not list where he lived. On Anna's marriage record it lists her as being baptized in Lubienko, pow. Krosno, Austria-Galicia. The family's records might be in Piotrowka with the parish being Lubno-Opace. Does any of this sound familiar? Barbara from Milwaukee
Barbara, No. This does not sound familiar... My WISNIEWSKI line came from Wielowies, Bydgoszcz Poland (west of Inowroclaw-NE of Pakosc). And... I really appreciate your contacting me. This helps to understand where some of the other WISNIEWSKI lines in milwaukee--came from.
