Visiting Poland

joreet — 2012-08-25 01:26:52Z

I would like to know if anyone can tell me where Dlugo Kanty was/is located. My husband is Joe Dlugokecki who's family came from Mlawa in the 1800's. We would like to see this area.

Any info on Waclaw/Walter Dlugokenski in New Castle, Cleveland, or Detroit

rroze2000 — 2012-01-21 20:43:39Z

Waclaw/Walter Dlugokenski came to the US when he was 17 to a cousin (possibly Marcel). He was from the Mlawa area in Poland and he was born between 1889 and 1906. I found a travel record in 1910 which seems to match this, but, I can't find much after that. He may have mocved to New Castle,PA, Cleveland,OH (Hosmer St) or to Detroit (Bloom St).

I should have said that my great-great grandmother's name was Magdalena (not Maryanna) Ploska.

Hi Luiza,

I have dozens of Dlugokecki (and Dlugokenski) records from an area near Mlawa (the Janowiec Koscielny parish) that I'm compiling and I'd like to share and compare them with other Dlugokecki researchers.

My Great Great Grandmother was also named Marianna Ploska but she married a Szymon Golembiewski. Their daughter, Marianna Golembiewska, married Aleksander Dlugokecki in 1887. I attached that record.

Incidentally, I speak and read Polish, but I am having difficulty with the Russian translation.

If anyone reading this would like to share Dlugokecki research and records, or if you can help me with some of the Russian translations, please send me an e-mail at rroze2000@yahoo.com.

Dear Lorraine,
Sorry, my English is rather poor ;-) My name is Luiza Dlugokecka. I live in Poland. I checked that in Poland live about two thousands people with name: Dlugokecki. My gradfather was Antoni Dlugokecki (Stanislaw Dlugokecki's soon). His wife's name was Marianna Ploska.
I read your information about the origin of our name. I looked for on Polish websites , but I did not find the Chrinicles of powiat Mlawski ( the information concerning the defence of village Dlugo Katy. Could you give me link?
I am surprised that you have such large knowledge about the Polish nobility.

Hello!
My name is Kristīne Rezņikova and I am from Kuldīga, Latvia. I saw your message in ancestry.com. You said that your grandad is Cheslaw Dlugokecki from Poland. Maybe, your grandad is born in 1912 in Przasnysz and he have a long-lost sister named Bronislawa? If that so, then you are my relative. My granny (Bronislawa Dlugokecki) was born in 1915 in Przasnysz (Poland) and when she was about 20 years old she comed to Latvia. After WW2 she lost all conections with her family in Poland. Now I`m traying to find my relatives too. If our stories stick together, please write me: susurnjix@inbox.lv

I forgot to say my great-grandmother's maiden name was Bronislawa Dlugokecka (fem.) -- her mother's maiden name was Ploska (fem.) otherwise, the masculine is Ploski (the L is "barred"). Most of the szlachta in the Mlawski district were related.

Re: Dlugokeckis in N.J., E. Chicago, N. Kensington, N. Castle, Claveland

2005-01-27 22:35:25Z

I think we may be related --- see my post below to Benjamin. My great-grandmother (Bronislawa) was married to Wladislaw Niski. The Dlugokecki's were from Powiat Mlawski, however, the Niski's had estates in the Czechanowa area. My great-grandfather brought his daughters to Connecticut because of Russian persecution during the Partitions --- he returned to Poland and they were supposed to stay here and go to Polish school (as Polish language and schools were outlawed by the Russian occupiers). Dlugokecki is an unusual name and I am surprised by the many people listed on this web-page with that name. I would assume we are all related (the name is so unusual) --- I do not know all the first names of all the branches --- however, read my other message (to Benjamin) --- perhaps this describes your family?

Re: Dlugokecki

2005-01-27 21:52:14Z

I also had relatives in the Boston area --- don't know their first names --- one of them was president or owner of a bank. (read my other post to Benjamin).

Re: Dlugokecki

2005-01-27 21:48:43Z

I am a descendant of the Dlugokecki Family (pronounced "dwugokenski") from Plock County, Powiat Mlawski (district), Poland. You can research your geneology re Dlugokecki on this Polish website. Perhaps we are related? You mention the name and its origin. The name is taken from a village named "Dlugo Kanty" (translation: Long Corners). In 1411, in a year of peace, the village of Dlugo Kanty was attacked by invading Teutonic Knights -- a man by the name of "Dziadlo", together with his sons and sons-in-law, successfully defended this little village and defeated the Knights, driving them away -- and thus saved the village. He was rewarded for this heroic deed by a land-grant from the Polish King which also included the village, and his name was changed to "Dlugokecki", Lord of Dlugo Kanty. He also was granted a coat-of-arms. The village of Dlugo Kanty became the "clan nest". This story appears in the Chronicles of Powiat Mlawski -- and also appears in the "Acts of the Kings of Poland" -- there is other documentation as well: ratification from the Polish Sejm (Parliament); recognitions by the Czar of Russia, King of Prussia, and Margrave of Brandenburg. Do you read Polish? There is an excellent CD-ROM diskette available from the Polish Bookstore in New York entitled "Herbasz Polski" by Bienicki (a highly-respected Polish geneologist). Some of the information on this diskette is also in English translation. Feel free to contact me for more information.

Thanks for your response. I'm happy to report that the Dlugokecki we were seeking has been found!!!

Re: Help solve a mystery

2004-09-15 01:18:04Z

Although I have stopped research on my family tree, I know of nobody in my family (immediate and/or uncles, aunts, cousins) of who that might be. Everyone in my line, from Zigmund on used either Dlugokenski or Hill. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I tried contacting Steven Dlugokecki I think last year, through the email he had posted on this site, and got no response. Good luck to you and I hope you find who you're looking for.

Re: Help solve a mystery

2004-09-02 14:05:14Z

From what I have found out, our branch of the family changed the last name Dlugokecki to Dlugokenski. Go to the Dlugokenski message board and see if you find anything. Also try to contact Stephen Dlugokecki or Sylvia Dlugokenski. They may be able to help. I know Sylvia has done a lot of work on this.

I am trying to find the Birthfamily of a woman who was adopted in NYC in 1968. Her name is Eva, the birthmother's step-father had the last name Dlugokecki. Supposedly her birthmother (supposed name Patricia) used the name Dlugokecki on the baby's birth certificate, as the father was unknown. Any clues to Eva's biological past would be greatly appreciated. Any Dlugokecki's out there that may have ANY information PLEASE help!!!!

Hi,

I'm a researcher in Los Angeles California in search of any information leading to the discovery of a Dlugokecki who lived the New York City area around January of 1968. If you or someone you know used the last name Dlugokecki (especially Patricia) please contact me. I am helping to find information about a young woman who was adopted at birth and is in search of her Birth Family. This is her only clue, please, please help.

Henry went to Detroit. Voycheck went to Pittsburgh and Michael, Walter and another brother went to Cleveland. Walter had a daughter, Theodora and a son, Walter Jr. Michael had several daughters and a son, Michael Jr. Michael Jr. used to live in Brecksville, OH. Walter's wife is Ann who is in a nursing home in Brecksville, OH.
The third brother, name unknown, who moved to Cleveland had a son, Zigmund.

Thanks.
I should have been more specific lol.
My g-grandfather was Zigmund Dlugokenski (1873-1948) but we've learned the name might originally have been spelled Dlugokecki. His father was Ignacy Dlugokecki (spelling from baptismal info.
Thanks again though.

Hi,
I live in the Chicago area and am 46 years old, my father was born in Poland. His name was Zigmund Dlugokecki (deceased in 1993). I was brought up in the Boston area. My grandmother's name was Jennie and my grandfather's name was Chester (both names "American-ized". My grandmother was somewhat of a celebrity in the Dorchester section of Boston as she sponsored many Polish people wishing to come to America (found them jobs, etc). Will be happy to discuss further.

They must have emigrated from next to Mlawa to America short after the first world war. I have the detailed adresses if anybody is interested.

Hello, I'm from Guildford, Surrey, England and I'm also looking for people belonging to the Dlugokecki family as it seems there are very few in the world. What a strange surname we all have. I'm a 20 year old student and would love to know my true family origins. My Grandad is from Poland and is called Cheslaw Dlugokokecki, we call him Grandad Chick. Hes alive and well and a really great man. Please feel free to get in contact. ben xxx

Steve,

After coming across some recent information about the Dlugokenski family, I have found that the family name in Poland used to be Dlugokecki. In fact, my great great grandparents were Zigmund and Eva Dlugokenski. Hope this helps you out... Check out http://www.geocities.com/ginanne17 for more information. I update the site every time I find new info. There should be a new update within the next couple of days regarding Zigmund's baptism. Can you help us out with any missing info, ie. brothers and sisters of Zigmund.

Thanks
