Paff family from Rome/Camden, NY?

Paff family from Rome/Camden, NY?

Surnames: Paff, Gadziola, Setlak, Shultz, Luczek
My name is Peter Joseph Setlak, grandson of Peter and Irene Setlak (both deceased) from Harrisburg, PA.

Just prior to my grandmother's passing, she began to tell me about my grandfather's family - from what she could remember and when she was able to speak. That was a few years back, and I do not recall everything she spoke of but I have the gist of it. I would like to get the facts straight - to be able to trace my grandfather's family line so I can put together a tree for my daughter.

According to my grandmother, either my grandfather's father or his grandfather remarried and changed his name. He was either a Paff, a Shultz, or a Setlak - but I am not sure.

I remember that when my grandfather died, an Andy and Jennie Paff/Shultz attended my grandfather's funeral at Indian Town Gap, Pennsylvania.

I also remember and have pictures of a visit from or to his cousins in about August 1988(yr?). There was a Lynn and Julia, and two other women there. I do not recall if the visit was in Harrisburg or at a diner in Reading.

My grandmother also gave me addresses and names to Paff family members from the Rome/Camden, NY area - all of which I believe have also passed away. Among these addresses was a Peter & Anne Gadziola of Utica, NY who may be Lynn's parents.

If you have any information about my grandfather and his parents, I would like to speak to you.

Thank you,

Peter J. Setlak
