I was finally able to track down my grandfathers exact town, it was Oleśnica, Busko-Zdrój Poland. Now I just need to figure out how to get records from the parish there.

Well my grandfathers Ellis Island Information does list Oleśnica, near Kielce, Poland.

My grandfather Stanislaw Glowniak, born to Michal and Julia glowniak came to the USA in 1913 and traveled initially to Ohio.
He's listed as going to a brother Pawel Grochowski, but we have no idea who that was. I know for sure he was traveling with a first cousin named Michael Jakubowski who was on the very same boat.

In 1915 he went to Detroit Michigan where he had family, got married and moved back Dunkirk NY where he passed in 1961. He had three brothers and two sisters, brothers were Bronislaw and Piotr i believe from old letters and family pictures.

Does this fit anywhere with your family?

Looking for any information/ possible leads on family or possible birth records for my Grandfather, born Stanislaw Glowniak, November 14 1894 in Oleśnica, Podkarpackie, Poland.

According to family history
.His father fell to his death from a church steeple in around 1901.
.His mothers name was Julia, maiden name unknown
.He had three brothers and two sisters, some immigrated to the US with him. Other stayed behind in poland, survived the war and kept in contact with him till he passed in 1961.
