Research notes

Just starting to trace my Mother's family back to Poland. Not easy. They spell their names in two different ways RACZKOWSKI / RECZKOWSKI. On my grandfather's World War I registration card he uses RACZ. But I have to NOTE that he was illiterate and someone wrote it for him. Mike grandfather put down on his registration card he was from Russia /Poland. Obviously he was immigrated here prior to World War I. he was born in 1883 and died in 1935. My grandmother was born in 1898 and died in 1953. They lived in Little ferry and Hackensack New Jersey . They were married at St. Joseph Polish Church on Hudson and Henry Place. That's my next t stop for information. Not sure of my grandmother's maiden name and their date of immigration. My mother passed in 2000 and she had little information. |
