My father's original name is Casimir Alfred Trzeciakiewicz. He is 85 and was born in Jersey City, NJ. He changed his name to Alfred Tracy in 1940's. His father was Michael Trzeciakiewicz, married to Wanda. I live in San Diego, CA. I believe our family tree goes back to Kracow, Poland.

Hi. My name is Dennis; I'm tracing my family history... my maternal grandfather was also Michael Trzeciakiewicz (born 1911) and his father was also a Michal (born abt 1870/4 in Russian Poland... it was he who immigrated to Jersey City; his son Michael lived there; as did my mother and even I grew up there... I still live in Northern NJ

My aunt remembers your grandfather Michael (married to Wanda), and thought we were related somehow; I'm just not sure how...

I'm sure you probably have it already, but the 1930 federal census lists your father (if this is him?) as Albert (1930 fed census: New Jersey > Hudson > Jersey City > Dist.141 > image 39/45)

Is this him and his family? If so, do you have any further information going back? I'm having trouble piecing together the pieces I have for my grandfather's family... but I have a number of pieces... for instance, I know my great-grandparents go back to Russian Poland (village Starczenieta, town Iwje - modern day Iuje in Belarus)

I look forward to hearing from you.

Dennis

Hi Dennis,

I am so sorry I have not written sooner.

Unfortunately, I do not have any more information than you do. However, I would like to know how we are related. You are correct in that Michael and Wanda were my grandparents on my father’s side. Their son, my father (I think in the Census as Albert, but correct name is Alfred) was one of seven; one died at an early age. The others are Estelle, Mary, Eddie, Henry and Irene. Only Mary and Irene are living.

My father changed his name from “Trzeciakiewicz” to “Tracy” when he was in the Navy. My name, as you may or may not know, is Mary Tracy. At times, I wish I did have Trzeciakiewicz as a last name. I am one of four. I was born in Jersey City but we moved to California in 1964.

I did hear at one time that my grandfather, Michael, had a sister that lived in New Jersey. Is she the one you are related to? I will speak with my aunts Mary and Irene and see if I can get any more information.

I would like to keep in touch. Tell me about your family.

I hope to hear from you sooner than I took to write. Sorry, again.

Regards,
Mary Tracy
