I am searching for my husband's roots.
His Grandfather was Franciszek Rzepka of Bialobrzegi, Lancut,Poland. Franciszek was born about 1888 and his parents were Josef Rzepka & Sophie Pawlak. Franciszek also had a brother, Jan. Franciszek married Apolonia Wojtowicz, also of Bialobrzegi. Her parents were Adalbertus Wojtowicz and Sophia Kawula. Franciszek, Jan, and Apolonia, all came to the U.S. in the early 1900's and resided in Detroit, Michigan.

Re: SEARCHING FOR RZEPKAS
this i s a little late, but my name is ryan rzepka, and i have recently become interested in knowing my family's geneology. I don't know much about it, but my father's name is Michael Rzepka. I have actually never know my grandfather, and neither does my father becuase him and my grandmother got divorced. And her name is Frances Rzepka. Her maiden name is smith. We all currently reside in the springfield area of massachusetts.

Sorry, but at this point, I do not know of any Rzepkas in our family who resided in Springfield, or in any other town in Massachusetts.

Re: SEARCHING FOR RZEPKAS
Yes - your Dad, Robert, and my husband, Ralph are cousins. Frank & Pauline (Apolina)Rzepka are both from the town of Bialobrzegi, Lancut, Poland. Frank had a brother, John, who also came to Michigan. There is also another Rzepka branch that lived in Detroit. The head of that family was Michal Rzepka. I believe he was a cousin to Frank & John.

Re: SEARCHING FOR RZEPKAS
Thank you very much. I was trying to search for the names of Frank and Apolonia parents to see if they came to America also.

Re: SEARCHING FOR RZEPKAS
I was wondering if you have any pictures of Frank or Pauline or even my grandpa. All the pictures we had of them were lost.
