T: MARCHWICKI, LASINSKI (LACINSKI), KUBERSKI FAMILY. HELP
Dear Members,
For years I´ve been trying to trace my ggrandmother´s roots from Poland with no success.
Her name was Maria MARCHWICKA and her family emigrated to Kurytyba, Brazil in 1890-91, when she was about 6 years old. I never found any records about the arrival of her family at the Brazilian Archives and lists of immigrants. In all her documents in Brazil,she declared she was Polish. I definately no nothing about her. A curious thing is that, in some documents she signed as Maria MARCHWICKA and in others as Maria MARCHFICKA.
Recently, I found out that she had a cousin whose name was Jozefa Lasinska (Lacinska, Lachinska). Born on Feb 28 1889. Parents: Tomasz Lasinski (Lacinski, Lachinski) and Rosalia Kuberska. I found the record of their arrival in Brazil - 1891. I also found the Death Certificate of Tomasz Lasinski (Lacinski, Lachinski), who died in Kurytyba in 1900 at the age of 68. In this certificate it´s written he´s Prussian. Even if Tomasz was listed as Prussian, all his children as Jozefa declared they were Polish.
I´ve contacted the descendants of Jozefa Lasinska (Lacinska, Lachinska), and they confirmed she was the first cousin of my ggranmother Maria MARCHWICKA, but they can´t give me more details. The only thing one said is that, once they saw a paper, on which was written that Jozefa was from "POVIAST", Poland. But this name sounds a bit strange to me.
Well, now I´ve been thinking that if they were cousins, probably they emigrated to Brazil from the same city or village in Poland. Is it right?
Is there any way I can find the location of my ggrandmother´s hometown based on the information and surnames I mentioned above?
I´ll be grateful for any advices and piece of information you can give me.
Dziekuje wszystkim za pomoc.
