Genealogy / Bykowski, Szopa - Help with conflicting genealogy research [3]
Hello! Hopefully I've posted this in the right category.
I am looking for the ancestors of my great-great-grandfather, and I've found a conflict between the names of his parents that I'm not sure how to resolve. I'm hoping someone here can advise me.
Here is what I have in my tree. The names of Peter's and Anna's parents were taken from a United States immigration record, which I've either misplaced or didn't save, bad me.
Peter Bykowski: born July 2 1851 in Lubla, Poland, died May 23 1911. Married Anna Szopa. Immigrated with family in 1882, naturalized papers dated Jan 20 1906, from Stryzyow, Galicia.
Parents: Josephus Bykowski, Valentine
Anna Szopa: born March 17 1857 in Lubla, Poland, died Oct 22 1924 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.
Parents: Stanislaus Szopa, Agathatha
Children: Joseph, Agnes, Stanislaus, John Frank, Frank, Max, Mary, Vladislaus, Anton, Edmand/Edward, and Lucy.
I have found a distant relative, who has a different pair listed as Peter's and Anna's parents in their tree. It looks like some of their info came from census reports, but they have conflicting information to what I found and I haven't been able to contact them.
Peter Bykowski: born July 2 1851 in Lubia, Poland, died May 23 1918 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Married Anna Szopa about 1876. Immigrated in 1882.
Parents: Hyacinth Byk, Josephine Knafrek/Knafe/Knaje
Anna Szopa: born March 17 1857 in Galicia, Poland, died Oct 22 1924 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Immigrated in 1882, naturalized in 1896.
Parents: Stanislaus Szopa, Agatha Gieba
Children: Joseph Frank, Agnes, Joannes Frank, Frank, Mary, Anton, Edward, and Lucy
Are there any clues in this information that can tell me which is more reliable, or some other way to reconcile the differences? I've been working on my family tree for years, and have never seen nor heard of a Hyacinth until now.
