Carol, I have Casimir "Casper" Katafiasz, born in Toledo on 9 March 1906 (baptized at St. Anthony's) and died 3 June 1986. His parents were Stanislaus "Charles" KATAFIASZ and Magdalena KACZMAREK and they were married in 1890 also at St. Anthony's in Toledo. They had 12 children: Walenty, Agnes, Wladyslav "Fred", Anthony, Cecelia, Martha, Felix, Casimir "Casper", Alexander, Theresa, Joseph and Irene. Stanislaus was born in 1865 supposedly in Jaruszewo, Poland (Poznan) but I have not confirmed that. I have info on Stanislaus & Magdalena's other children and also on Stanislaus's parents and siblings (he was one of 9 children).
I'd be happy to share what I have and I'd also like to know about Casimir/Casper's wife and descendants. Please reply or e-mail me at
