Genealogy / Krupski name [36]
I started this thread. My name is Elizabeth Krupski. I undertook this journey roughly 7 years ago. Some unseeable force pulls me towards this side of my heritage above all others. There is always a story to be told
Since then, as happens, life gets in the way. Ironically, it was in the midst of an undesperate search one boring evening that I finally found part of my great grandparents story in Long Island. More specifically, my great grandmother and her name variations. These are my great grandparents:
Joseph Krupski b.1896 Poland -d.1879 center moriches, NY.
Anna Krupski b.1902 poland-d.1944 Center Moriches NY.
The mystery left is who is John Krupski listed on my grandfathers ( Dominick) Birth Certificate? Is it a name mixup, or perhaps he passed away and she married a relative of his which was not uncommon at that time. This all a recent for me and huge find.
The rumor of suicide turned out to be correct. I found her obituary which gave name variations.
I will have to search through ellis island records, in the hope I can find a link to discover exactly where they from. Thank you all for your responses over the past few years.
Her obituary:
Birth: 1902, Poland

MRS KRUPSKI TAKES HER LIFE, RAZOR CUT<br>
Moriches Woman Suffered Nervous Condition, Shocked by Second Son's Induction into Army, Officials Say
A nervous condition, believed to have been aggravated by the departure of a second son for military service, was given as the probable cause of the suicide last Thursday of Mrs Anna Krupski aged 46 of Montauk highway, Moriches.
The verdict was given by Coroner Grover A Silliman, M D of Sayville, who says Mrs Krupski, mother of six children, had grieved over the fact that a second boy, 18-year-old Albert Krupski, has left Wednesday to report for Army duty at Camp Upton. A brother Dominick Krupski age 26 is in the Navy
Mrs Krupski who had slashed her throat with her husband's razor, according to Brookhaven Town police, was found about 10 am in an outbuilding of the Krupski property by a third son, Edward Krupski, aged 20. Dr Roland W Jones of Center Moriches who was called, pronounced death. Police say Mrs Krupski had been dead about an hour. Sgt Arthur Waldron and Officer William Glover investigated the case.
The only other member of the family home at the time was the youngest child, eight-year-old Frances Krupski.
Police learned that Mrs Krupski had been under a physician's care for nervousness.
Besides her three sons and her daughter, Mrs Krupski leaves her husband, Joseph Krupski, a duck farm worker, two other daughters, the Misses Rose and Helen Krupski, and a sister, who lives in New York.
Born in Poland, Mrs Krupski had lived in Moriches for the past ten years.
On orders of Dr Silliman, the body was removed to Herrmann's Funeral chapel, Center Moriches.
