I do not know if this is of any use to you. Anna Kojs came to work for my family is Troy, NY in the late 1950s. She was like a mother to me. To my knowledge she was never married. She used to tell me stories of her homeland, but I do not know what town she was from. She had a married neice who also lived near us. In Annie's later years she went to live with
her neice. I believe Anna is buried in the Oakwood Cemetary in Troy.
