Unfortunately I do not speak or understand Russian. Nothing survived the generations. sad.gif

I can only assume my great-grandfather was Catholic since my grandfather was baptized and raised Catholic. My great-grandparents married in the US and she was born in Krakow.

The only other knowledge I have of my great-grandfather is that he was well educated and spoke 7 languages. Was that normal in this area in that time?

Thank you for the well-wishes. After all these years, I know I need it.

I think gentry. My mother remembers being told he was a "nobleman" by her eldest aunt. I don't know what was meant by that.
