  ~Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2007 10:26:13 -0400 From: "LINDA SANTOSUOSSO" Hi Sandy, It's me, Linda Santosuosso. Hope you are well. I may have had a huge breakthrough! While talking with elderly Aunt Rosie (dob 1919 and Anthony Zima's daughter) she mentioned that there was a Stanley Zima from around 15th and Denison by St. Barbara's who her father Anthony Zima called brother (in Polish of course). She also said that the Anthony Zima family had cousins around the area of Denison and St. Barbara's. When she was a young girl, she was asked by a handsome young man to dance at one of the Pearl Road dance sites. He said to aunt Rosie "I'm your cousin." that means that Stanley and Anthony Zima were indeed brothers and this "young man" that asked aunt Rosie to dance was the son of Stanley. It can be confirmed if you can find out if your Stanley Zima's parents' names were John and Apolonia. I know that my grandfather's parents were John and Apolonia definitely. My grandmother's parents were Sophia Plocica and Gregory Pacocha. They would be your Stanley's parents, too. On my grandparents' marriage certificate, there was a Stanley Zima and Apolonia Koceba as their witnesses. I believe this Apolonia Koceba was Anthony and Stanley's sister as their mother's name was Apolonia, too. Many times, the daughters were named for their mothers. Sandy, you and I may be related by the fact that Stanley and Anthony Zima may have been brothers and a sister named Apolonia after their mother. Linda
