Marion Dlugokenski nee Oneschuk - CT
Hi...I'm looking for info on Marion [nee Oneschuk] Dlugokenski, born 2/10/1916, died 3/3/1987, in CT. I am actually interested in the Oneschuck family but any info may help. Thanks. p.s. the "l" would be soft so the Polish pronounciation is more like "DwoogoKENski"

I found this info from the Social Security Death Index on Ancestry.com:
MARION DLUGOKENSKI Request Information
SSN 041-09-0870 Residence: 06497 Stratford, Fairfield, CT Born 10 Feb 1916 Last Benefit: 06497 Stratford, Fairfield, CT Died Mar 1987 Issued: CT (Before 1951)
Being public record, you may already have this; if you don't, it may provide a productive starting point.
By the way, if your research uncovers anything relating to 'John Joseph Dlugokenski' of Maspeth, NYC, NY, I would be interested. He was my grandfather, and it was he, as far as I can determine who changed the family name to Hill during WWII. Info about the meaning of the name would be appreciated, as would any historical highlights. I've heard some curious legends about the family and would like to know if there is a factual basis for them.

read twice, write once. . .
After a little more reading, I find my previous post seems quite ignorant. I am also indebted to the researcher who posted the family tree at: http://members.aol.com/LdySilvrKn/This is the first I've heard of my great-grandfather, Zigmund. Grateful thanks.

Hi John,
regarding what your grandfathers name means, from the polish I remember the word Dlugo translates to long? Hope this helps, The reason I was on this page in the first place is I had a Great Aunt named Frances Dlugokenski, nee Szymanski who was my Grandfathers Sister There are more brothers & sisters who settled in Michigan, Ohio & Massachussets I think.

Hi....I'm an Oneschuk. I'm not quite sure of what information you may be looking for. I know that my Great Grandfather, John Oneschuk came to the USA at a young age. I may be able to find more information.

Tis wasn't me. The credit goes to Joseph T. Hill, Jr. I simply put it up on a website.

I am the cousin of Melissa oneschuk who replied also. Our great grandfather John Oneschuk "Teehahn" came over by boat. I have been researching our last name for quite some time. The name is originally spelled along the lines of Oleszczak. It is a common name in Poland. Kind of like Smith or Jones is here.Our great grandfather is from a place in Poland called "little Russia". I have not yet figured out what part of Poland that is. I will update this if I find anything further.
