Sierzputowski's in Poland



This is a long shot, but here it goes. I was wondering if there are any Sierzputowski's in Poland on this site. I just heard a story about my Great Grandfather, Marcel Sierzputowski taking a trip back to Poland in the 60's. So my question is: would anyone who was alive at that time remember a Polish-American visiting them? He was from the Lomza region, possible from Bacze Mokre. He would have been in his 70's.

I wrote it that way because that's how one of the other men spelled it in 1920something. i also saw it spelled "booka moorka" on an immigration form. When I type a polish city in quotes that is how I saw it spelled, even though I know it's not the right way. :)

thanks for all the help. I'm trying my hardest to find out everything I can. there were two other men, Lukas and Peter who moved to Cleveland around the same time, they both had a form of "Bacza Morke" as well. Now I would like to find out what, if any, relation they are.

Genealogy / Sierzputowski, finding villages in Poland, Lomza region. [12]

Hello, I looking for some answers about my families history. My great grandfather, Marcel Sierzputowski, immigrated from Poland in 1910. On his Declaration of intention he wrote down Baczach, Lomzgnskie Poland as his home. I can not seem to find a town or village named Baczach. I know it my be a missing spelling, but any guesses on where he meant? Also he marked that that his wife, Bronislawa, was from Ochanki. I do not know where that is either.

Also it says that when he first came over his name was Marzell Scherschputowski. I have a feeling that was an Ellis Island worker spelling it phonetically, I just want to make sure. He settled in Cleveland Ohio and had 6 children. He might have had a brother or two. I am not sure of this. I know my grandfather change the name Sierputowski for some reason, but now sure why.
