Hello,
I am Looking for information on Stanislaw (Stanley) Lewandowski & Angeline R Gedeon .
Stanislaw owned and operated a Grocery and Soda Parlour ( and possibly a speak-easy) on 7702 Spafford Ave. S.E. in Cleveland, Ohio.
On April 20, 1925 he was killed by a car bomb , planted by his tenant / employee ( John Kosienski ) , who supposedly was infatuated with Stan's wife.
Stanislaw & Angeline had two children (according to family legend , both daughters) one was 5 yrs. old when stan was killed, so was born 1919 - 1920 ? , the other was ten months old when Stan was killed , so born July, 1924 ? ...
Family Legend says that both children were given up for adoption, though it is more probable that they were taken awya from Angeline by the state, as at one point in the Criminal Case for Stan's murder she was seen as a co-conspiritor ( and had been previously noted for posessing alcohol , during the prohibition era). Supposedly she also spent time in a mental health care facility.
2 years after Sanislaw's murder, Angeline was already re-married , the newspapers say her new last name was Cinrcinski ... the closest phonetically I could find is Siencinski ...
I'm looking for any information regarding Santislaw's two children, and possibly Angeline's (correct) Last Name.
If any of this sounds remotely familiar, please contact me at
prlewandowski@hotmail.com There are some Lewandowski's in Poland, and in the U.S. looking for contact with Stanislaw's side of the family.
Stanislaw was born in Czernice Borowe, ( Mazovian province ) of Poland (Under Russian occupMtion at the time,
he is buried at Calvary Cemetary in Cleveland.
I also have his Ellis Island record.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Peter Lewandowski
