Genealogy / Piasta relatives from Gibalka, Pajka from Ostroleka [14]
Merged: Looking for information on the Pajka family from Ostroleka
I'm hoping to find more information on my great great grandfather's family. I will share with you all I know, and would appreciate and input or insight you can provide! What I know comes from family history/documents, and researching on FamilySearch.org and a paid membership to Ancestry.com .
Valente (Walenty?) Pajka, born 1860. Married to
Frances Mroz born about 1860. They emigrated to Massachusetts in 1893 with their children:
Anna Pajka
Joseph Pajka
Mary Pajka
Rose Pajka
Valente Pajka
Stanislaus Pajka
Frances Rose Pajka
My grandfather, Stanislaus, was born in 1886 in Ostrolenka (Ostrołęka). I have this information from his WWII draft card. Specifically, for town and county it says "Kibalka, Poland" and under county it said "Ostrolenka". I'm assuming that county/country were put backwards. However, I haven't had much luck in locating information on Kibalka, but that is what was written. This is the only piece of geographical information I have on the Pajka, Mroz, Piasta or Grec families.
In 1910, he married Helena Piasta. They had eight children:
Estelle Pajka
Statza Pajka
Chester Pajka
Helena Pajka
Walter Pajka
Frances Pajka
Stanley Pajka
Tadeusz Pajka
Helena's parents were Francis Piasta and Marianna Grec.
This is where I come to a halt. I can find information on the generations born in the US, but nothing further back than I have stated. I'd love and insight or information, especially on what/where Kibalka might be. Thank you for your time!
