My g-grandfather was Michael Malecki. The info I have, I received from a cousin doing family research had his birthdate as Oct 1832 in German part of Partition.
My g-grandmother was Ludwika Yarck, born Aug 1852, also from German part of Partition.
I have been searching everywhere and cannot find parents for either Michael or Ludwika.
They came to the US in 1881. When they did, they had 2 children, Michail and Frances.
I found a marriage record (the only one) at the Poznan Project for:
Michael Malecki and Ludovica Jarecka in 1869 in the Nietrzanowo Parish.
US census records had their marriage around 1870. Ok, good so far. But Ludwika's name, could Jarecka and Yarck be the same?
Could this possibly be my g-grandparents?
This is one brick in my dad's side that I would love to conquer. Any help would be fantastic!
thanks,
Donna
