Hi Jean
I'm not sure what information you need. My grandmother was Jane Cook and Walter Cook (married to Amy Smith)was her eldest brother. Janet was an only child and travelled to America when she was 19 with her daughter having married Frank Byczek who was stationed at a U.S. Army medical unit nearby. Walter and Amy lived at 3 Temperance Cottages, Quidhampton at the time and Walter had 4 sisters and 2 brothers. All but the youngest married and had families. Please feel free to contact me by email as found in this thread, if you wish for further information.

Hi Gill and Scott
I have just come across this thread on Ancestry.com.
My mother was also Janet Doreen Cook's cousin, her mother (my grandmother) was Florence Annie Smith, sister of Agnes Amy Smith (who was Janet's mother). I would be so grateful if anyone has any info they can share with me - I have been doing my family tree for a long time and have been trying to follow this line without success so far.

Thank you so much for your posting!
I believe we are therefore related. Janet's mother Agnes Amy Cook (known as Amy) was my grandmother's sister (my grandmother's name was Florence).
I tried to contact you privately from here but unfortunately as an "unpaid" member of ancestry I am unable to use this facility. I am happy for you to contact me if you are able.

Sorry but I don't recall any of this and the records I do have are few. I am sure that you are referring to the iron Mountain families.

robinson539 — 2011-09-18 17:30:27Z

Do you have any reference to the Frank you mention having an English wife named Janet with a daughter Eleanor?

SueGrahamPetroski72 — 2008-03-22 02:08:41Z

Sorry for the confusion. Valenty Byzek's 2nd wife is my husband's grandmother. He is a Petroski. Grandson of Chester Petroski, Anna's first husband. Someone else said they were related to Valenty, but he lived in Iowa. I'm not sure how these messages crossed.

Oh wow, I haven't been here in some time,,,

I'm not sure the entire context of your message,,, but Valenty Byczek in Iron River, Michigan would be my great-grandfather

Re: Valenty Byczek

SueGrahamPetroski72 — 2008-03-21 19:37:31Z

It appears to be two seperate Valentys. I have his decendants and the names do not match. Our Valenty is buried in Iron River, MI.

mrbandmrsb — 2008-03-21 17:36:34Z

Do you know if Frank had other brothers like Wallace, in Florida, Joeseph in Colorado, Edward (my grandad in Iowa) Phillip, sisters Claire, Barbara, Mary, Kate amongst others? Can there be two Valenty's, my graet grandad was Valenty and is buried in Fairfield Iowa?

mrbandmrsb — 2008-03-21 17:23:59Z

Noticed Sue Petroski doing research on my great grandad Valenty Byczek who came from Posnen Poland, married Anna Zcmidt and settled in Germanville Iowa. He had 13 children, farmed in rural Jefferson County Iowa and is buried in Fairfield Iowa with Anna, George,Phil and Joeseph. Have records on where some of the rest of the family is buried, from Florida to California. Wonder if Valenty was that common of a name??My grandad was Edward P.

While cruising on the net during lunch hour, I stumbled on the ancestry.com message board. To my surprise, I found your message seeking info on the family of Frank Byczek, my husband Tom's father. According to my husband, Frank and Janet (now Janet Ross) had 6 surviving children: Kitty, Don, Tom, Danny, Frank Jr. and Patty. (One or two children died.) They and their families are scattered all over Michigan.

Please let me know if you do any sort of formal geneology search. I'm interested for my children's sake. Their ancestry has been fully traced on my side (both mother's and father's), but never on their dad's side.

Hi Scott,
Thanks for replying. My mother is Janet's cousin and she and her sisters have been trying to find her whereabouts for some time. Would you mind contacting me by email? My address is gillbruwer@hotmail.com. Many thanks

2003-03-19 23:53:16Z

I am so sorry it has taken me so long to reply to you, I apologize,,,,

Yes that was my grandfather, who married Janet Ross, they have several children including my dad (We are from Stambaugh)

Unfortunately my grandmother Jan has alzheimers and resides in Crystal Falls, Mich

Re: Valenty Byczek

2003-01-20 03:54:39Z

Scott, did your grandfather Frank die in 1962? I am trying to track down relatives of a Frank Byczek of Stambaugh who married an English war bride about 1945/46. They had at least 3 children.

Hello there, Valenty is my great grandfather, as i've said in an earlier post, but I really have no idea about him or his family, but I have recently been inspired to look into my family history, which I will do ASAP, currently visiting my in-laws in Illinois, fun stuff ;o)

Re: .Re: Valenty Byczek

2002-09-11 03:19:03Z

It does not appear to connect. My Byczek family settled in Iron River, MI. I do not know where Valenty came from nor his parents or siblings.

Re: .Re: Valenty Byczek

wojnilko — 2002-09-09 13:33:37Z

Hello,

I have a Byczek family in Wallkill, NY and Danbury, CT they come from Chimylke, Wilno, Russian Poland. Does this family connect to yours?

Re: Valenty Byczek

2002-06-13 10:19:27Z

Hi Scott! I hope we can swap info. Valenty was married twice. His second spouse was previously married also. They both had children with their 1st spouses and had two children (to the best of my knowledge) together. It was a huge family from what I've found. My father-in-law (Chester F. Petroski) is the oldest son of Valenty's second wife. Please feel free to contact me at sueski@innernet.net I look forward to hearing from you!

Re: Valenty Byczek

2002-05-28 03:05:38Z

Hello there, I was just bored this evening and did a google search on the family name, and this came up, I am not sure if you are from the IR area, but that is my family, I dont know too much about them but I believe Valenty was my great-grandfather, his son would be Frank, and my dad Danny Byczek.

I am afraid that is all I know, but it sure is interesting, If I can help you in any way, dont hesitate to ask!!

Sue Petroski — 2001-07-18 07:00:35Z

I am trying to piece together the Byczek and Petroski familes from Iron River, MI. Valenty married Anna Wecinski Petroski after her husband was killed in a mining accident. Valenty was also married before. They had a combined total of 19 children
from their previou marriages and 2 together.
