Surname Mroz

Is there anyone out there in Poland or elsewhere that has run across the name Mroz from Piotrowka, Poland (in the woj. Podkarpackie.) That is where my Great Grandmother Katherine lived before she came to the U.S. She also had 2 brothers Peter and John that also came to the U.S. They all came to the North west Indiana And Chicago, Illinois area. I have had friends look in the archives and civil records office, and local curches in Poland but can't find any of their birth records. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also researching: Pikula, Mroz, Machota, Stojak, Wozniak

Have you found her manifest? Know when she came? Have her & her family on census records? If you would provide more information, I can check on ancestry.com & other sites for these records & more. You can email me by going to my profile if you would perfer not to list the information on the net.

Hi Joyce,

My Great grandmother Katarzyna Machota (nee Mroz) and my Grandmother Salomea and great-aunt Pauline all arrived on December 08, 1902 port of departure Breman. I knew my Grandmother and Knew where they all lived and where they are buried. The family history here in the states I know. I can't find any info on them in Poland! I'm having great luck with my Machota and Pikula family names but not with the Mroz name.

In Polish there probably should be a thingy over "o". Mróz.

Hi Paul,

Are you sure it is the one in woj. Podarpackie? There are two other locations.

If your sure of the location, try writing to the local parish for Piotrówka.

Hope this helps.

True

The one in opolskie definately not. It was German before WW2.

I am sure that it is the Piotrowka from the woj. Podkarpackie. My Great Grandfather (Frank Machota) that married Katherine Mroz was born in Lubcza (Pilzno Parish) which is closer to the Piotrowka in Podkarpackie. Plus on my Great Uncle Peters death certificate his son listed birth place as "Krosono Area"

My grandmother married a Mroz whose name was changed in Poland to Grzych. They settled in NW Indiana

What was your Mroz family members first name? and where in poland were they from?

Michael Mroz-resided near Krakow.

Our last name used to be Mroz according to my Grandmother Rosemary. When our relatives crossed over from Poland they changed the last name to Frost. I'll ask my Grandmother the names of the relatives. Its been several generations since the name has been changed.

Do somebody know the surname FROS in poland? I founded my surname in the Ozorkow names list and Jewish gen. I want to know if my ancestrors came from
Poland. Thanks, Richard Fros
