The pictures below are from the Baranowski, Szatkowski and Zawada family
lines, and contain images not clearly labeled. This leaves the current
generation unsure of who was who earlier on in our family history.
Victoria Szatkowski (who married Frank Zawada) had several sisters.
Her older sister Apolonia married at the age of 17 and had her first
child a month later. Apolonia's husband was Stephan Baranowski, and
together they had a total of 14 children.
Victoria's younger sister Agnes, if the information presented is correct,
married Wojceich (George) Baranowski when she was 14 years old.
It is not clear who George Baranowski was in relation to Stephan Baranowski.
It is important to note the Szatkowski marriages to Baranowski men,
because some of the family photos show Victoria's son Joe Zawada with
his cousins. These cousins appear to be Baranowski relations, based upon
comparing several images introduced to me from a third cousin by the name
of Kathy Atwood. Kathy is a Baranowski descendant.
Sadly, the people who could tell us more about these mystery photos have
all passed away.
