Hello,
I am trying to trace my grandfathers family. My grandfather was born in Chelmek, Poland but died in Detroit, Michigan, USA. His date of birth was May 4, 1890. I have just received a copy of his Arbeitsbudi (Workbook) when he worked in Germany from October 30, 1907 to July 29, 1912. His workbook has his name as Kasimin Malcharek, Chelmek, Poland. His father's name in the Workbook as Franz Malcharek, Chelmek, Poland. I also find on a Polish document, Wyciag metrykalny, the name Kasminerza Majcherek or Kasminerza Majcherka or Majcharka. It is very difficult to read the writing not being able to read Polish.
My grandfather was miner. There is a Miner Union Office location of 311, Chelmek, Poland in the Workbook. He went on to work for Georg & Grube from October 30, 1907 to April 13, 1912 (Location I can not read). He then went on to work for Kopalnie Wegla, Compagnie Gal. de Mines, Libiaz-Galicya from 21 IV 1912 to 29 VII 1912. I did find on another document the union number of 15782 Letter M.
My grandfather had 2 brothers, Ignacy and Mikoaj who later came to live in America. There was a sister who stayed in Poland, Teresa. They were born in Chelmek, Poland.
If anyone could help me to locate my Polish ancestors it would be so greatly appreciated. I am very willing to mail or send by computer the images/copies of the documents for further translation.
Please, you can email me at fmajch7561@aol.com
Thank you.
