I am interested in any information on the town of Karolewa. The manifest lists it as Russia but it may have been Poland as he was Polish. Oddly in addition to Polish he was fluent in Yiddish AND Hebrew while being a Catholic and not Jewish. He was musically inclined and could play many instruments and had a voice for singing. He also had troubles with drinking. There are holes in the history as he rarely if ever spoke of Europe. We think he may have come to the US with his first wife, returned to Poland, and then left her (and child) to return to the US where he married my grandmother. His first son Adam unexpectedly showed up in Chicago as a young man around 1925-1935. Adam ended up in Detroit where he lived raising his family.
