CLEVELAND PRESS. "Oldest Polish pioneer tells of fleeing to U. S. to evade war." Cl. Press, Feb. 27, 1934. Matthew Dluzynski, a brief biography.

Matthew purchased sublot 37 on Bliss St. (A.A. Jewett subdivision). His parents, Simon & Dorothea Dluzynski, purchased sublot 38 on Bliss St.. Both purchases were made on Jun 18, 1881. Simon sold his property on Bliss in 1886. So did Matthew. No further deeds were found for Simon and his wife. Did they move to another county or state? Did they die around that time?
