I am also wondering if our families are linked. My grandmother, Mary Rose (Kopacz) Niziak, was born in the village of Wola Radlawska in Poland. On one of the census' (either 1920 or 1930) it says Galicia. Her father's name was, I believe, Stanilaw Kopacz, and her mother was Rosalia Kurtyka.

Do you think there may be a connection? My Polish relatives settled in Massachuseets.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you.

Hi Kathleen,
Yes, I am still in this post. My Kopacz family came from southeastern Poland. From the towns of Lackzi Brzeskie, Kodzolski, Podole, Ruda and Mielec. I traveled to Poland in 2003 and visited my cousins there. How can I assist you?

Oh, I sure hope you can!!! My grandmother, Mary Rose (Kopacz) Niziak, was from a village by the name of Wola Radlawska. One census says she was from Galicia and another says Austria. I know the basic history of the borders of Poland. I just want to find my Polish grandparents' roots. My mother spoke, read, and wrote Polish but didn't teach me even though I wanted to learn. She corresponded with relatives in Poland but I don't have those letters. However, I do have some letters, as well as, what I believe are baptismal certificates.

I have been able to trace many of my father's family but very few of my mother's. I am only second generation American born on both sides. I want to know my Polish side, too.

My parents are both dead so I can't ask them. I've been doing genealogy for nearly 40 years. Unfortunately, I've only been able to do it full time for the last 3 years. And, now I'm finding information that is not giving me answers but more questions.

Would you be willing to correspond with me on my personal email? If you are, it's wolfkatgen@gmail.com.

My grandfather said my name in Polish was Kasha (not sure of the spelling) and I love that. However, my husband and most people I know now call me Kat. Please feel free to call me Kat, too.

Thank you so much for your willness to try to help.

Kat
