Voter Registration of 1907:
BARSKI, Teofil - Jennings & Denison
10/19/07 reg. no. 391 ward 6 prec. D

RESIDENCES:
1900 - 3 Belt Line Rd., Cleveland, Ohio (short street off of Jennings just north of Denison)
1910 - 3762 Jennings Ave., Cleveland, Ohio
1945 - 4850 Edgepark Dr., Garfield Hts, Cuyahoga, Ohio

OCCUPATION:
Saloon proprietor. Ran a saloon called Barski's Hall at the corner of Jennings and Denison Ave.

Nellie and Peter Barski may have been relatives. Property exchanged hands between the two parties in 1924. Not Teophil's son. Could be a nephew. Also, in the 1910 Census and living just up the hill from Teophil at 3763 W13th St. are Frank Barski (age 36 and married but no wife listed in the census) and Victor Barski (age 16). One has to assume there is some relationship between all these Barski's.

Teofil owned most of the land on the west side of Jennings Ave. from the western edge of the Harvard-Dension bridge supports, past the intersection with Denison on to just north of Redman. In total, he owned 24 lots.

Teofil is listed as the brother-in-law of Frank Stachura on the latter's ship manifest entry. This doesn't seem possible as Frank's wife's maiden name was RAS, and Teofil's was KROLL. The only scenarios that could fit this entry are if Frank had been married to a KROLL at the time he came to the U.S.A., or if Catherine Kroll had been married before she married Teofil and her real maiden name is RAS.

Parent's names do not appear on Catherine's death certificate.
