Genealogy / KOSIBA in Frysztak and PLAZA in Korczyna [16]

Hello Richard Pelczar, was your grandfather Jan Pelczar married to Wanda Gajda?? Is this the same Jan Pelczar (1940 - 2014)? I am related to Wanda Gajda thru the Plaza family from Korczyna, she is my 2x cousin 1 x removed. Thank you, Karen Miller Grant

Hi all, sorry for my absence from this site. If anyone is still looking for anything here, my KOSIBA'S and PLAZA'S as far as I know came thru New York. They settled first in Chicopee, MA and eventually moved to New Bedford, MA

Genealogy / KOSIBA in Frysztak and PLAZA in Korczyna [16]

I am looking for any KOSIBA's in Frysztak or PLAZA's in Korczyna. My great-grandparents were ANTONI PLAZA who came to New Bedford, MA in 1889 and KATARZYNA KOSIBA who came to New Bedford, MA in 1894. KATARZYNA's mothers name was MARYANNA FRODYMA and her father's name was JOSEPH KOSIBA. The family went back to Poland to visit relatives in 1905 and my Aunt remembers talk of relatives in Poland before WWII, but not much afterwards. Any information on the family's or towns would be greatly appreciated!
