I am not related to nor have any additional information on these surnames. R/S MAK http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiwood/ http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiportag/ ++++++++++++ Thanks for putting up such a neat site, I found it helpful in searching for my great uncle, Edward Semenske and some records of him. Thru your site I was able to track down where he died, what division he was attached to and am still looking for his burial, which I believe is in france but which american cemetary is not known. I'm trying to figure out if we are polish or german and what the original spelling of our name is as well as if we are related to the semenske's in west virginia and missouri. The name thing is very confusing, I've found three different ways it could be spelled, the last one thru your site because my grandfather, Charles, was also drafted but he came from Nekoosa and the spelling was Szymanski. According to his naturalization papers it was spelled Siemienski. Ughhhhh! Thanks for the help David Semenske <blake@execpc.com>
