4. Richard Frank ZABKA

OCCUPATION:
His father had a farm in the village, Hyrow. The manor house burnt down so his father divided his land between his sons, Michal, Jan and Jozio. Michal sold his part and bought some land in Nowe Miosto - that's some kilometers from Hyrow. He was a furrier in Poland and often went abroad, to Rumania and Hungary. Would leave home for 6 months at a time to go trapping in the mountains.
His wife was Kataryna Eckert. There was no contact with her side of the family.

Michal built a house in Nowe Miasto and lived there. He had his children there. Maryanna, was the eldest and I have in my possession a letter from her daughter providing much of this family background. Her address in 1990 was:
Maria Grinienko
57-340 Duszniki Zdroj
ul. Stowackiego 10/3
Poland

Frank came to America first, then Kunegunda and Karolina. Kararayna Eckert died when she was 56, and some years later Michal died.

DEATH:
Near the end of his life, Michal Myczkowski slept for three days straight. He woke up in the early evening, asked for a glass of water, said he was tired and went back to sleep. He never woke up again.

Eckert is a German name but we do not have any information how she happened to meet Michal, who lived on the eastern border of Poland at Przemysl. She died at age 56.

7. Jan MYCZKOWSKI
8. Kazimier MYCZKOWSKI

His nationality was Russian and his wife was Polish.
Lived in Chyrow, a small town about 0 km south from Przemysl. Manor House burnt down so he sold his land to his sons and built a new house in Przemysl, Noi Miasto, Poland.

Hyrowa located at 49n32, 21e38.

In trying to determine how the Trezciak's, Kotwica's, Murawski's, Osinski, and Broski families are Frantizek's 2nd cousins, I've calculated that they most probably were either Michal's brother Jan's wife's sisters, or one level up. Ie. John's sisters.
