Searching for Cousin in Warsaw Poland name:Małgorata Kralczynska

Hi

I'm searching for my cousin in Poland, her name is Małgorata Kralczynska.
However I last had contact with her over 20 years ago, so she is most probably married by and thus using her married name.

I know that she use to live in the ul. Angorska street in Warsaw...
If anyone has any advice on what methods I can use to try and locate her, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

John :-)

John;

A quick 'Google' search shows that you may have been looking a while on another board(s).

In case this has not been suggested, Brigham Young University has an extensive database.

Birth-Marriage-Death Records. It may be worth a go. Good Luck. I admire your persistence.

Małgorzata Kralczyńska

unless is Małgorzata Krawczyńska. There are two on Nasza Klasa from Warsaw.

Nice, Bzibzioh. You may have done it! :)

Kralczyńska, Produkcja. Szkła Technicznego, ul. Angorska 15 D,. 03-913 Warszawa
look it up on the PDF above... the info is from 2005 though... good luck...

I wish I had known about PF when I was seeking relatives. :)

wow.. you find the PF but don't know how to use a search engine? seriously?

My comment was about the efforts of Bzibzioh and pgtx helping in John's search.

As for me, the records that I had managed to locate were birth, marriage, death
and travel documents from 1910s-1930s Poland - some of which I found at BYU.

So, to answer your questions: I did find most of this information via the internet;
still, seeing the results here, I may have been better off just asking people at PF!

Oh well, too late. I'm already a Polish Citizen just awaiting a PESEL and passport.

is your name john?

no, but i've been known to play one on the internet :)

i think part of john's problem may simply be misspelling
and he may actually have this thing all sorted by now.

hey, if you can figure it out, why can't he, right? ;) :D

heck yeah... i mean, you would think so, right? :)

i sure hope so. :)

Congratulations, richy. I can tell you are excited. Have you been trying for long time?

Thanks, Bzibzioh. I am elated! I had always wanted to repatriate to Poland, but never knew it was possible until just recently.

The hardest part was locating all of the necessary documents - and, of course, "the waiting" after everything was submitted.

I actually went to Poland to visit relatives and to try to obtain some documents (almost 3 months) and I absolutely loved it!

I retained the services of a Warsaw attorney who was excellent throughout the process - which, all told, was about 1 year.

Unlike some who covet the 'EU Passport', I now await my Polish passport so that I may live, work, and play ... in Poland! :)

Wow, that's long! And expensive I assume. I hope you will be happy there. Are you retiring?

I'm going to Poland next week for a 3 week visit and I'm going to pick up my new dowód osobisty with PESEL. That's my mini-excitement :)

Actually, from the experiences of others I've read on the internet, 1 year is not too bad. Some claim it to be 3+ years!

Having an attorney acting on one's behalf can be a bit expensive, but it really is the only alternative to the Consulate.

I (unfortunately) will not be retiring, but I'm looking into some potential business prospects; nothing definitive as of yet.


Wow, good for you! I would've loved to go that route with my PESEL but, unfortunately, I can only do this from USA.

If my experience is any gauge, you are sure to have an absolutely wonderful time there, however short it will seem.

BTW, I was impressed by your quick response to John. Maybe I should have had you do my research and paperwork :)

Hi Bzibzioh

Thanks for your reply,
and for stating that I may have had the incorrect spelling of my cousins name.

My command of the Polish language is not good, but I did think that Margret in polish is
spelt with a z, (Małgorzata). Yet in the last letter that we received from my cousin over 20 years ago, she had her name as 'Małgorata'.

That is why I initially put that name, but I did do searches for Małgorzata also.

Thanks

John

Thanks pqtx for your reply

I must admit I initially dismissed the info in the link as it related to a company.....
and a person with a different Firstname.
But I have since learned that Margaret may be involved in the company, so I have found a phone number for it and will try it soon.

So thankyou pqtx and Bzibzioh and everyone here for all your help....

Take Care

John

i'm glad i could help... good luck with your search John...
