Genealogy / Polish Gypsy Roots & Roma ancestors in their families [205]

From my understanding I am a decendant of Kashewbe (not sure if it is even spelled right). Which apparently is a region ( nicknamed maybe?) in Northern Poland.

They lived on the rivers banks and mostly fishermen.

My facts come from my dad, who doesn't seem to like to talk to much about his side of the family.

My grandfather and great-grandfather came from Poland to get away from the Holocaust.

I was told that if you were Polish and gypsy, they really had it out for you!

So like some of you out there, we search for answers...

If anyone out there knows more about our people, please let me know.

Please remember though there are good and bad out there!

Peace and much luv to you too!

Ahhhh, so I have spelled it wrong... sorry...

What else do you know?

Now that I know how to spell it properly, I can google it!

Thank you!!

It is nice to know also from reading some of the other posts, that having a background of Wiccan or Pagan is also a part of me.

I am still learning, but see and know much more then the eye can catch...

My grandfather was gifted, but I think people shunned him.(Also the community was Roman Catholic) It is a shame about their ignorance, it is only what comes natural to some.

Ha! They must be jealous! Lol
