| Notes | I'm of German descent on the maternal side and of Polish-American descent on the paternal side of my family. My paternal grandparents were Polish immigrants to the United States who met and married in Chicago. My father was the third youngest child of their ten children who reached adulthood. My paternal grandfather Franciszek 'Frank' Rol(l) was born 1890 in Budapest, he was the son of Jakub Rol, born abt. 1861 in Banska, and Rozalia Bryjak, born 1864 in Dlugopole. The villages Banska and Dlugopole are located at the foothills of the Polish Tatra Mountains in the district of Nowy Targ. My paternal grandmother Julianna 'Julia' Szot was born 1888 in Blaszkowa, she was the daughter of Jakub Szot, born 1860 in Blaszkowa, and Agata Obryk, born 1865 in Jaslo. The village Blaszkowa is located in south-east Poland about seven miles north-west of Jaslo and about thirty-one miles south-west of Rzeszow. |
