Bride's siblings Dorothy & Edward. Bride's cousins Miss Hedy Kujano & Raymond Krawiecki." Have come across Wisniewski surname perusing St. Michaels Records. Not sure if they were from Russia Poland, but I do that there were folks from Russia Poland in Washington County. Someone from the Washington County list probobly knows whether the Washington County Wisniewski's were from Russia- Poland or Posen. I don't know if KRAWIECKI was ever spelled Krawczyk. Though have found the name spelled many different ways on various census years:) Not yet sure where the KRAWIECKI family was prior to Washington County, Illinois around 1881. Supposedly they came to the U.S. in 1870 and 1871. If the 1900 census information is correct my 3GGM Kate Michalek, husb. Andrew KRAWIECKI had a total of 10 pregnancies with 8 living children in 1900. I have located 3 of them. John, Dionizy Joseph, and Antonina. Mary Jane KRAWIECKI-WISNIESKI is grand-daughter of John KRAWIECKI. I am decended from Dionizy Joseph. (Both are sons of Andrew KRAWIECKI and Kate MICHALEK.) There were some KRAWIECKI's in the LaSalle, Illinois area that I know of but have not yet proofed them. Where area did you find Bolesaw KRAWCZK? Barb
