Genealogy / How to find a burial site / records in Poland... [80]
I'm searching for information on my great-grandparents. My grandmother came in 1909 to Ellis Island and I have all those ship manifests, etc. She was born in Szrensk but Place of Resisdence is listed as Krziwki, Russia. I understand names of villages were changed due to occupation. However, I would assume this area is where my great-grandparents continued to live. Both were alive till late 1940's.
Grandmothers maiden name was Wesolowski, born in 1890, died at age 95 in Salem, Massachusetts. Married name was Leszczynski. Also searching for family and info for that name, my grandfather.
I'm planning a trip to Poland in April and would love to find family graves and even perhaps farm/homestead where my grandmother lived.
Can anyone help direct me to the best way to achieve this? Thank you in advance for any assistance.
