I am looking for relatives who live or lived in Jedrzejowka, Narol. My grandmother was a Nieduzak. Some of her close relatives were named Wazna, Marynicz, and Galka. As recently as 1990, some of our family was still living n Jedrzejowka, as my late mother was corresponding with them at the time. Any leads would be gratefully appreciated!

Mamczur from Huta Stara/Hutzul?

I am looking for anything that might help me track my roots. My grandfather, Michael Mamczur, came to America in 1910. The few documents I have found indicate he came from Huta Stara, Austria. I was told by my mother that he was Ukrainian and my grandmother was Polish(Nieduzak from Jedrzejowka, Podkarpackie). About a year ago, I posted on polishforum.com about a song he used to sing to my mother when she was young. The response suggested that the song was Hutzul, if that might be a clue to anyone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

MAMCZUR: metronymic nick = wet nurse's son

NIEDUŻAK: patronymic nick = son of the small fry, little guy, midget, etc.

Huta Stara, Austria

There is a place of that name in the Podkarckie region in Poland quite close to where your grandmother came from.

Hi!
Thanks for your post. When I Google directions from Jedrzejowka (near Narol)to Huta Stara it seems to be far by 1910 standards (the time period that they came over to US). Google says it is one hour 49 minutes by car (which they probably didn't have back then.)

Is this the Huta Stara you mean?
