I am trying to find paternal family members related to my grandmother Zofia Czaja who married my grandfather Adam Skawinski.

I am trying to find paternal family members related to my grandmother Zofia Czaja who married my grandfather Adam Skawinski.

Classification: Query
Surnames: Czaja, Skawinski
My grandmother was Zofia Czaja. She was born on 23 April 1888 (or 1886) in Austria (or possibly Szczurowa, Galicia) to Stanislaw Czaja and Anna Grzesiak and died on 13 March 1954 in Butternut, WI. (I think that she might have immigrated from Hamburg on 10 April 1907 and arrived in New York on 21 April 1907.)

She married my grandfather Adam Skawinski on 10 June 1912 at St. John Cantius Church in Chicago, IL. He was born on 16 (or possibly 15) July 1888 in Annopol, Russia (or possibly Grabowiec Kr. Poland or Grabowka p. Nowa Aleksandrya g. Lublin) to Jakuba (Jacobus) Skawinski and Rozalia Nieratka (or Rosalia Nieradke) and died on 19 April 1953 in Butternut, WI. I believe that he immigrated here in 1907.

If you have any information about them, please write to me and let me know what you have. I am stuck trying to get any info in Europe. (Besides Poland, Galicia, Austria or Russia would probably be other areas that they might be listed at living in during the time that Poland was not a country and off the maps.)
