Angela777 4 | 11 24 May 2007 / #2Well, when I put the former into maps.google.com, it asks me:"Did you mean:BudyBudy Ostrów Mazowiecka gmina, Ostrowski, Mazovia, Poland"and redirects here:maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Budy+Ostr%C3%B3w+Mazowiecka+gmina,+Os trowski,+Mazovia,+Poland&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=48.15347,82.26562 5&ie=UTF8&cd=1&z=12&om=1But I don't know.
OP Ron Kraine 2 | 3 14 Jul 2007 / #3Don't know anything else about location...Grandfather came from here in 1904, and was supposedly in Russian army. Does that help any??
bookratt 6 | 85 15 Jul 2007 / #4Ron, what is/was the grandfather's name? I can help you some if I know that and age at immigration.Try also surname navigator dot org online, set it to Poland and run, then try US or UK or Canada or wherever he ended up and run.Try also familysearch dot org and geneanet dot net
OP Ron Kraine 2 | 3 19 Aug 2007 / #5Grandfather was Bronislaw Krajczynski...He was born Dec. 1, 1887,93,94 or 97, in Ostrowo Budy, Russia.....His draft papers say Oct. 1, 1879.....Go figure.......His immigration papers say he arrived Ellis Island May 19, 1905 and came to Cleveland, Ohio...It says he came out of Hamburg, Germany on May 5th on the ship Graf Walersee????????Can't read the exact spelling of the ship, and can't find the records of his arrival...Thanx for your reply......................Ron
Wroclaw 44 | 5,379 19 Aug 2007 / #6Graf Walersee????????Graf Wallersee.Bronislaw Krajczynski: arrived 1913, age 30, Nowiny, Russia. That's all I can find.Nowiny is of course in Poland.
BubbaWoo 33 | 3,506 19 Aug 2007 / #7ostrowo is on the baltic coast... i have absolutely no idea where his budy is
szarlotka 8 | 2,208 19 Aug 2007 / #8i have absolutely no idea where his budy ishis budy lies over the oceanhis budy lies over the sea......
Wroclaw 44 | 5,379 19 Aug 2007 / #11I would look for Budy near Nowiny.Problem: There are about 20 places called Nowiny and another 20 called Budy.
OP Ron Kraine 2 | 3 27 Aug 2007 / #12Hey everyone...Thanx for the humor...This Krajczynski can not be the one I am looking for...The papers for the one I am looking for says that he came into New York on May 19, 1905, bound for Cleveland. I recently found his brother's papers and they say he came from "Ostrowo", and do not mention "Budy". Further research notes that "Budy" can mean a clearing in the forest/marsh. So, maybe I am looking for "Ostrowo"....P.S. Is the correct spelling of this ship really "Graf Wallersee", as bookratt stated???
Wroclaw 44 | 5,379 27 Aug 2007 / #14P.S. Is the correct spelling of this ship really "Graf Wallersee", as bookratt stated???He didn't. I did. Wallersee is a name and a region. So, I assume it's the name of the ship, that you weren't sure how to spell.
