Marolewski Family
Steven Marolewski married Eugenia Orbik in South Chicago in the 1920s.
The Marolewski family immigrated to America on May 10th 1903 sailing from Bremen on April 28th and arriving in Baltimore aboard the ship Koln. The father Joseph Marolewski, 33, a laborer, was going to see his brother Xavier on 8257 Ontario (now Brandon) in South Chicago. He listed his last residence as Mlyniec, West Prussia (Poznan). Also listed on the ship manifest was his wife Magdalena, 28, daughter Leokadia, 5, Stefan, 3, and Konstancia, 1.
Mylniec belonged to the parish of Gronowo, near Torun. LDS records from Gronowo parish show these records of Marolewskis.
Josef Marolewski born 18 September 1867 to Andreas Marolewski and Marianna Groszewska. Joseph Marolewski had several siblings:
Xavier, born 20 November 1866. He married Julianna Predeszkiewicz in Mlyniec on 18 sep 1892
Rozalia, born 16 August 1873. She married Wladislaw Mucharski in Mlyniec on 17 March 1891.
The parents Andreas Marolewski and Marianna Groszewska were married on 25 January 1863 in Mlyniec.
The Marolewski family does not show up in the Gronowo parish any earlier than this. The marriage of Josef Marolewski and Magdalena did not shop up in this parish so it must have happened in a nearby parish.
