Hi I'm looking for info on my Great Grandpa Joseph Albert Staron. He was Born May 6, 1888 in The town and community of Kolbuszowa is located in the northern part of the Rzeszów Province. He Immigrated in 1905 to Philadelphia, PA. What I really would love to find out is about his parents? I am told his father is Peter Staron and Mother is Rosalie (Saj) Staron? I would love to find out about Peter & Rosalie (Saj) Staron. They stayed in Poland I only have one photo of them. I was also told that when the Staron's came to the States that they changed the last name from Starone to Staron. If anyone could or be willing to help I would love that.
Thanks Jason Staron

Guten Tag, die Großvater meines Mannes kommt aus Schlesien, dem heutigen Polen. Seine Mutter hieß Rosalie Staron. MfG B. Staron something like: my husband's grandfather was from Silesia/Poland. his mother was Rosalie Staron.

Staroń entspricht mehr oder weniger solche Nachnamen wie Altmann, Altenhof usw. Staroń more or less corresponds to such (German) surnames as Altmann, Altenhof &c.
