Carol and others,
My great- grandmother was Maryanna (Marcella) Rzasa. Her brother was Wladyslaw (Walter) Rzasa. The both arrived in Johnstown around 1906. There father was either George or Adelbert Rzasa. I have several name varients for him. Their mother was Rozalia Sliez (sp).
This family came from the town of Laka, near Rzeszow and Lukawiec. Its my understanding the records are in Laka, but the town minister doesn't give out information.
As for more brothers and sister I don't doubt it one bit. I would say all the Rzasa's in Johnstown probably have a common origin. I'm sure a search of St. Casimir's records and records at Ebensburg would clear this up.
If you wish to contact me do so.
