I'm researching my grandmother's surname, Ejsmont. It's a very unique name, and I've not had luck in finding any information on it. Here's the basic info that I have so far:
John Kishalefski married Helena Unknown in or around Poland and had Stephania (my great grandmother).
Stephania Kishalefski married Wallace Jasiulewicz about 1905 and had 3 daughters. Wallace died and Stephania married Waclaw/Vaclav Ejsmont sometime between 1907and 1911 in Wilkes Barre, PA. They had 2 children Stephanie (my grandmother) and Frank. Stephanie married Joseph Nestor in Wilkes Barre and had 5 children: Caroline, Joseph, John, Raymond, Christine. Frank was killed during a rumored "gang" shootout in Wilkes Barre, PA in 1946.
I am unable to find out information on Waclaw Ejsmont. I do know they were Polish and spoke polish. The marriage certificate of my grandmother states Stephania (her mother) was from Poland. Where is unknown, but they were rumored to be, from family history, from Galicia.
Any information on Ejsmont's would be very much appreciated. It may not make much sense now, but as i get more information, i can piece it all together.
I'm not a professional, just a 30 something eager to find my family history for my brothers and my dad. Hope to hear from anyone with any knowledge. :) Thanks!

I don't have much info on your specific family history, but when you are looking out for info, keep in mind that if there is a Polish woman, her name will be Ejsmontova, whereas the male will be Ejsmont. :)

Not so :)
As is the rule with allmost every polish name it doesn't apply to the Ejsmont's. I am Zbigniew Ejsmont and that makes my wife, Krystyna Ejsmont not Ejsmontova.

Hello, I just read your notice on the subject of the Ejsmont name. My mothers maiden name was Asmont. I recently found out that the name was spelled Ejsmont in Europe. I believe my grandfather, John was from Galicia,however I believe that his father, Frank was born in lithuania,(with possible Scandinavian family origin).Franks wife was Rozalia (Rose) Bedwinsky (of unknown country origin).Frank and Rose never entered the U.S., however John came to the U.S. in 1912-1914 and married Julia, they lived in Pennsylvania.I am seeking any Ejsmont family information and or living or non-living relatives. Thank-you for your help.
