Hello,
I have been here before but have some new information and would really appreciate if anyone can help me? In looking for an ancestor, I have found the birth certificate of someone who was born at 1721A Aleja Street in 1847. Name Bronislawa Amann. Her Father was Jan Amann and mother Jozefa nee Chrzanowska.
Now I was told by an genealogist who is search for Bronislawa's daughter (born later in (1886) told me that address is the Belweder Palace. Jan Amann the father was a restorer/conservator of the Royal Park of Lazienki. The State owned this palace in those years and mortgaged parts out to people, perhaps workers of the park.
The story I have in a biography book is that when Bronislawa married Adolph Jan Gronland they had little Josephine and lived in a palatial estate on a hill overlooking Lazienski park. When I went online I saw that this Belweder palace does that. Now I realize they did not own it or live in the whole thing. Bronislawa and Adolph whose named sometime in those years changed to Count DeCroix. Lived with the grandmother.
My question is this, is there any way I can find out more about who lived there since with this information?
Also Adolph was a Tobacco Manufacturer.
There are accounts in little Josephine's journals that she would watch her parents dancing in a big ballroom with soldiers etc around. That would be approx. 1890 to 1891.
Is there a book or something. I have been everywhere and cannot seem to get anything. If there is anyone on this forum that can guide me. I would absolutely be estatic as it has been a long search.
Thanks for much for reading my long letter. I sure hope somebody will write me back.
God bless
