Genealogy / Zelem family - Southeast poland [73]

Mizzou:

Good luck in finding out more about the Zagursky family tree.

My great-grandmother was Teckla Zagursky from Macina Velyka, born in 1864. I cannot make any direct connection between your Zagursky tree and my tree, but chances are that there is one....perhaps cousins.

...do you have birth dates for your Grandfather's siblings?... let me know...

...the 1787 Austrian Cadastral Records list only one family of Zagursky...the earliest Zagursky on my list is Jan Zagurski (lived around 1750's...1780's...) and then Blazej Zagursky ( lived around 1780...1810...) ... I can go back to 1818 /1821 to my Great-Great Grandparents' birth in Macina Velyka.

wozzy....hello! Really neat to hear that you are going to a Zelem wedding in September.

Bodaki and Ropica, along with Mecina Velyka, are villages intertwined with my family.

If you could print the above messages #88 and #89 and takes those names with you perhaps some Zelem there may recall the Stefan and Teckla(Zagorsky) family and their 7 children, two of whom came to America.... I know it's a long-shot, but maybe....

I would really like to know where any of the named people in messages #88 and #89 ended up after Operation Vistula...Boryslav? ...any one have an address or names....

I look forward tohearing from you. Have a great time on your trip! I'm jealous!

Addition to message #88 concerning the Zelem name in Mecina Velyka and surrounding villages........

....add other names of those who served as Godparents, marriage witnesses or who married Zelems: Lopata, Kaczmarczyk, Smakula, Szopa.

Also, immigrants to America spent some time in Philadelphia then settled in Somerset County, PA....Listie area.
