I am trying to find the date of death for Anton (Anthony) OLSZTA. He was born about 1888 in Russian Poland and was last seen in the 1930 Census in Joliet. I cannot find him in the Illinois Death Index nor can I find him in the SSDI, which leads me to believe that he died sometime in between.

Any help with a date of death would be appreciated.

I found this obit might help.

Might try contacting the funeral director and or cemeteryor catholic cemeteries office in romeoville,il to ask about anton being buried and dates
then contact
Joliet/Lockport public libraries for obits.Joliet has a website.
or
pay $11.00+ to Will County clerk's office and ask for a search of death certs.
That's all I can think of
Hope it helps

Thanks. I think Natalie is Anton's daughter.

My grandfather was Anthony and he died in 1951 in Joliet

I am trying to determine the parents of Anthony. Do you know?

Feel free to contact me privately at kowallek@iglou.com.

There are alot of us here in the Joliet who would like to know who are great grand parents were ? Any and all information would be great .

I sent for the death cert for Anthony OLSZTA of Joliet, who died 18 Dec 1951 in Chicago. It lists his parents as Andy OLSZTA and Margaret UNKNOWN. I was looking for an Anton whose parents were Anton OLSZTA and Katherine MONDZELEWSKI ... so this does not appear to be my family.

I hope this helps someone else.

Just to make sure, request a search at Joliet Library for an obit. Could be Anton had more than one wife. OR his death certificate might have been wrong about mother's name.

Might also try church records, if you know which church they(or their children) attended.
