Hi Julie,

I hope to still find you on this post. I am the great-granddaughter of Emil (Mike) and Felixa Ilnicki (Elniski) who lived in Barwick in the 1920's to 1940's. I have seen pictures of my family with their friends who also lived in that area. I recognized seeing the Dowson name among others. It would be nice to connect with you and share info if we can! Feel free to email me bonbonmad221@yahoo.com

Hope to hear from you soon! Bonnie
