Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 1 ************************************** *** HALLER’S ARMY USING THE INTERNET *** by Paul S. Valasek

First of all, I hope that everyone had some form of Thanksgiving. It may have been smaller than normal, but the fact that it was celebrated is what counts. The same goes for Christmas, which is easier to reduce in size and complexity. I have decided NOT to buy TWO new Lexus autos to park in my driveway, as I do every year! Maybe a Radio Flyer wagon would be more appropriate!

Now for the latest news on the Polish Army in France. This article is created with a homage to the Internet for what it should be accomplishing, rather than the waste land it has become. Fun and games and mindless dribble is fine at times, but true knowledge is much more rewarding than how much virtual candy you can collect from a cartoon screen.

The first item is the availability of a documentary I was part of in 2018-9. It was produced by Robert Wachowiak and Edyta Slusarczyk and is quite well done. The one-hour show details the very basics of Haller’s Army, from recruitment to Camp Kosciuszko, to arriving in France, transfer to and the Eastern Front, and completing not ending with Armistice Day, November 11, 1918, but in February 1921. At that point, the Haller troops were still returning to America via New York City, Camp Dix, NJ, and homeward bound.

The story is based on the great-grandfather of Anthony , who now lives in New England. This man originally settled in the Ohio River Valley of Southeast Ohio and West Virginia, moved to Massachusetts, and continued his “new life” in America, which was interrupted by World War I, the Polish Ukrainian War, and finally, the Polish-Soviet War.

My role in the movie was to identify proof of his enlistment, from where and when, and how he left for Camp at Niagara. It took a bit of true genealogy research, but I was able to locate him under his original surname, and as they say, the rest was history.

You can find this film on the website, Vimeo, and type in “Falcons of Freedom.” If that doesn’t work, try this link:

Some people seem to have found it via other routes, and some say that they are unable to connect to Vimeo. When I received the link, I was able to pull it up on my big-screen TV through AT&T cable. If you can do this, the viewing experience will be much better. I would appreciate any comments you may have, as I can easily see a need for further videos and/or miniseries or movie.

* * *

The second part of this article deals with what even I was amazed at with the true possibilities of the Internet. As I continue to sell both Volume I and for the past year, Volume II of Haller’s Polish Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 2 Army in France, (yes, Volume III is more than half ready), I was contacted by Sharon in Arizona, who wanted to purchase my book, only to find out the second volume was out as well. After arranging for the sale of both books, I always ask the buyer, did you have anyone connected with the army – father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle, great-uncles, etc.? If we get lucky, I can provide more information to them for their research. Indeed, she said her great-uncle, Alexander Uczciwek, enlisted in the army from Chicago, served in Europe, but was killed in 1920, one week before plans of shipping home.

Immediately my ears picked up, as anytime in 1920 would most likely mean the Eastern front, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, and lands which were historically Poland. And what was he doing in battle one week before returning to America? This trip home would have to be started in Gdańsk, and if he was on the Eastern front, how does one get to Gdansk from Ukraine or Belarus in one week? For those who may not know, Russian trains have a different width of wheelbase than continental trains, so a direct train from the East to Gdańsk was not possible. This discrepancy was deliberate, as how better to stop an invading army by not allowing their transport trains access to the Russian railway system.

Sharon also said that Alexander had been discharged from service recently, which would explain his planned return to the US – but why was he still in a war zone? She replied that he was working and serving with the YMCA, and was near Minsk when the fighting took place.

She did include a copy of an article printed in the Chicago Tribune shortly after the event (reproduced on page 4).

So, now I have more information for my upcoming volume, as well as my database of recruits. Whenever I find the information about death and burial, I add this to the recruit’s file. I checked the listing and had no information of date or place of death, nor any information on Alex returning to the USA, either wounded or deceased for final burial. So I asked Sharon, does she have any knowledge of where her Great-uncle was buried, and she said, not any idea whatsoever.

As this answer is not satisfactory to a dedicated genealogist, I started to wonder how we can find out more. I contacted fellow researcher Jean-Francois Kusina in Paris for his take on the matter. He has very generously allowed me to use much of his research materials on the Polish Army in France while in France, especially the French cemeteries where the Hallerczycy and Bajończycy are buried. He had no listing for Uczciwek, but said he would write to another researcher in Poland who may know. I felt this was a step in the right direction, and if successful, maybe in weeks or a couple of months we may have an answer. Now is when the Internet truly works well.

Within 28 HOURS, I had my answer. (See photo on page 5.)

Seems like Jean-Francois’ Polish connection has a Belarus connection who knew exactly what I was looking for. Alexander Uczciwek was buried in the Roman Catholic Cemetery in Baranowicze, near to Minsk. The headstone does indicate he was a Polish American from Chicago, who was serving in the YMCA. That is pretty solid information, not disputable.

Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 3 Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 4 So now I know where he’s buried, and Sharon knows where he’s buried (first time the family has ever seen the grave, let alone known where it is.) All it took was a letter to me about my books, emails from Arizona, to Chicago, to Paris, to Warsaw, and then “somewhere near Minsk.” All in 28 hours!

Since this original information drop, I have received several additional photos, as well as additional newspaper articles, enough for a chapter about Alexander Uczciwek to be included in Volume III.

If anyone has information on Aleksander Uczciwek, Sharon would like to know. You may contact her at .

Last bit of information, if you might be interested in obtaining either Volume I or II or both of Haller’s Polish Army in France, please write to me at and I can tell you what the cost is for either, or take both with reduced shipping costs.

Also if you have an ancestor who served in the army, and by chance we have not communicated with each other, please feel free to write and share what you have. I am, unbelievably, starting to gather additional information which will not fit into Volume III, which of course causes creation of

Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 5 a file on my computer entitled, Haller’s Polish Army Volume IV material.

Merry Christmas to all! Keep traditions alive and well. Cancel ignorance.

************************************** *** LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ***

Subject: Ancestors Poland Foundation

My name is Natalia Kuć and I represent Ancestors Poland Foundation. We are a Polish non-profit organization that deals with genealogy research for Polish communities living in the United States, Canada, and Australia. Our main goal is to familiarize them with their heritage and reunit- ing families that were separated in the result of Polish turbulent history.

We have built a special place for our virtual community – a social network, – where people from all around the world can leave their genealogical requests for free. They are visible for all users so as a result, it is very easy to find missing relatives. Moreover, we have a group of volunteers who help our users with their research and therefore allow them to learn more about previous generations.

It seems that the mission, as well as the goals of our organizations, have a lot in common – we constantly strive to develop our community and promote Polish culture abroad. That is why we are interested in starting cooperation with you. We can offer:

• free accounts on our website for all members of your society • assistance in genealogical research • help with contacting Polish administration (it is necessary during some research) • help with basic translation of Polish, Latin and Russian documents • providing the educational materials about genealogy • preparing the articles about Polish history, culture, customs etc.

We want the idea of our social network to be known to as many as possible, so it would be very helpful if you support us with its dissemination. Even the article with the link to our web- sites as well as a mention about our Foundation on the list of your partners would be a valuable step further. Of course, this is only the example; we are open to any other way of possible coop- eration.

We believe that the cooperation of Polish and American organizations is the best expression of our idea and it will benefit many genealogical happy endings. Please, feel free to have a look at the presentation we have prepared. It gives a wider perspective of our activity and further plans.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us back. I look forward to hear- ing from you!

Natalia Kuć Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 6 Editor – We are always happy to pass along information about projects of this sort. But please realize, we have no way of checking all of them and being certain they are on the level. It’s up to you to decide whether this will help you. The most I can say is that the website looks good, as far as I could tell.

*** SPECIAL OFFER: THE LATEST FROM POLISH ORIGINS ***

Editor – I like to pass along the latest info sent out by PolishOrigins, because these updates often discuss questions of great interest to Polish-American researchers, and not everyone has signed up for these notes. The following is a slightly edited version of the Thanksgiving message sent out by PolishOrigins.

Do we have anything to thank for in 2020? Well, of course, we do! Please forgive this slightly provocative question at the beginning.

Needless to say, 2020 has surprised us all and turned many of our plans upside down. Still, there are so many reasons to be grateful.

First of all, as Zenon mentioned in one of the previous e-mails, our entire team has survived in full force and we can still do what we like best.

Back in March we launched our Genealogy Services . The research, which was limited only to those of you who were traveling with us on Genealogy Tours, is now available for anyone interested in working on their ancestry.

As a team, we learned a lot together and took a big step forward.

The past months brought us many interesting genealogical cases and, as always, discovering new facts about your family history, and finding new cousins is the most rewarding. All your positive comments, reactions, and testimonials are our biggest motivation. You can read some of them here:

We know that we repeat it often, but thank you for another year with PolishOrigins! It is difficult to express in words the gratitude and satisfaction we get from working with you. Thank you again.

In these new times, certain things have acquired new value for us: relationships with relatives and friends, moments spent together, memories and experiences prove to be more important than material things.

Therefore, we have prepared a special bonus from PolishOrigins: starting from today (November 24), until the end of January 2021, for all ordered research projects, in addition to the report, we will also prepare an ancestor’s tree for you in the form of graphics. Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 7 Here you can see an example:

[This image, and a detailed description of the offer, are available at https://polishorigins.com/< genealogy/#bonus>

You can use it to share with your relatives, attach to your wishes or show it to the younger generation. Maybe it will provoke them to create a similar tree on their own?

Before filling out the Research Request https://tinyurl.com/y2homnjd< >, read some additional notes from us:

1. As always, we consider all research projects individually. Not all of them will allow us to create such a detailed tree – we will discuss specific cases in further communication. 2. We will do our best to send you these materials before the holidays, but this will not always be possible – we must first check the availability of documents for your area of search and the availability of the institutions in the current, constantly changing situation. We will inform you about the estimated time of project realization. 3. We encourage you to send us the photos of your ancestors, your favorite quotes, or text to be included in the template. If you do not have your materials, we will find some that will suit your tree (it might be a photo of the parish, a fragment of the map, or one of the documents related to your family).

Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 8 And for those who would like to learn Polish genealogy themselves, we have prepared another free video in our Polish Genealogy Academy series. You can watch video #6 “Introduction to genealogy search in the Russian partition” (and all others) on our website: . This time Aleksander describes the territory of the Russian partition of Poland and its border changes over the years. You will also learn about the characteristics of the vital records in this area. There is also a downloadable PDF presentation.

Let us know if the video was helpful. Thank you for all your comments and suggestions. We are sending you warm wishes for a holiday celebration filled with everything that brings you happiness.

Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 9 *************************************** *** GENETEKA INDEX UPDATES *** by Waldemar Chorążewicz

Editor – Once more, let me pass along new Geneteka indexes updates shared by Waldemar on Facebook’s Polish Genealogy group this month. You can find assistance with the two-letter province abbreviations online, for instance, at . Note that UK is Ukraine and BR is Belarus. Also worth remembering is the tip Henry Szot shared with us in the April 2018 issue of Gen Dobry!

Here is an easy way to find out if an index has been updated. On the top right of results pages, there is a list of options (opcje). The last item is Wyszukaj tylko indeksy z ostatnich (search only indexes in the last), with a choice of 1, 3, 7, 14, 31, and 60 days. This permits receiving results only in the chosen time period. Example of use: 1) select the search page icon, 2) select świętokrzyskie, 3) select parish Sokolina and the wyszukaj option with 31 days, 4) if any, only results entered for the last 31 days will be shown. A surname might be added to further limit results.

************************************ *** MORE USEFUL WEB ADDRESSES ***

This site gives you information about a course being offered by the National Genealogical Society designed to help you read old handwriting. The course will be taught by Carla S. Cegielski (a good Polish name!) and the cost for NGS members is $75.00, $100.00 for non- members. Please note, however: the focus is on handwriting in the United States. I suspect many of the techniques and suggestions will also prove helpful with European handwriting, but it would be unwise to assume that. You might want to ask the NGS Course Administrator for more information before you spend any money. ______

Jan Cesarczyk posted a note to the Polish Genius mailing list in response to a request for information about Polish nobles. The situation was different in each partition; this one talks about nobles’ standing in the Russian partition. Jan also mentioned that this site provides some insights on the matter: . Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 24 ______

Information is constantly being added to the PGSCTNE Database “European Immigrant Birthplace Records.” Visit this page on the website for more information and details on how to order. ______

On 11 November Eastman’s Online Genealogy Newsletter posted an article with the title, “Fighting Information Overload on the Web.” The author (listed as “anonymous” but I’m pretty sure it’s Richard Eastman) explains that there is so much information available online that it’s easy to get overwhelmed. He talks about a solution that works for him: RSS feeds. So far, I don’t feel I’m suffering from overload; but the time may come when I decide to try Eastman’s solution. ______

For years I’ve seen the term PERSI without understanding what it’s all about This article tells you about this indexing service for periodicals and how you can use it for your research. ______

In a post to the mailing list Polish Genius, Jan Cesarczyk pointed out that this site has over 36 million records and is constantly having material added. Jan explained, “It is hosted by the Polskie Towarzystwo Genealogiczne - The Polish Genealogical Society. The same website hosts many scanned images of church records. Teams of volunteers are constantly working on scanning church books while others are going through the scans, labeling and sorting them. The sorted scans can be found at: . They are sorted by Województwo, , Parish & units. The units are typically particular books. You will see them labelled: U - Urodzenia - Births; M - Małżeństwa - Marriages; Z - Zgony - Deaths. This part of the website is slow, so please be patient. The unsorted scans can be found in the “Poczekalnia” - the waiting room, . This currently contains 4,706,988 files, waiting to be sorted. They are mainly from Polish state archives, but there are also files from the archdiocesan archive in Warsaw and from archives in Wilno (Vilnius) and Kijów (Kyiv, Kiev).” ______

If you need info on birth records from Nowotaniec in Poland, you’re in luck. Philip Semanchuk has uploaded “Nowotaniec Civil Births, Vol 9, 1899-1946” to the above location. Debbie Greenlee announced this in a post to Polish Genius, and said, “Thank you to Susan Udinsky, Valerie Bell, Jaime Saranczak, Janet George, and Becky Vingo for their continued help.” ______

Speaking of Susan Udinsky, she posted a note to Polish Genius and other groups about two interesting webinars she attended that were sponsored by the Kosciuszko Foundation. The first Gen Dobry!, Vol. XXI, No. 11, November 2020 — 25 was “Ethnic Minorities in Polish Lands, and the recording is at the above URL. The second was “The Transatlantic Lives of Polish-American Women with Marta Cieślak,” and you can view it on YouTube at . ______

Justyna Cwynar posted an item to the blog Me, myself, and my family tree, with the title “Land of the archives and home of the scans – Part 2,” and this link takes you there. The main feature is a map of locations in the Opava region between Czechia and Poland. As Agnieszka Maja Mizgalska explained in her post about this to Facebook’s Polish Genealogy group, “some vital records, land records and inhabitants list can be found in Opava Archive, . To see which locations are covered by that archive, please check out this map of locations (which includes Polish parishes) prepared by Justyna Cwynar.” ______

The issue of Nu? What’s New? that came out on 22 November included a note from Jewish Heritage Europe, stating that the Galicia Jewish Museum in Kraków has a mobile app one can use to let photographs tell the story of Polish . The above URL lets you learn more. ______

Gesher Galicia, the Jewish group that focuses on Galicia, has announced a partnership agreement with the Ossolineum Institute, . The Ossolineum is a large and prestigious library, and it’s reasonable to expect good things to result from this agreement. ______

This is just a small oddity I noticed the other day. There are four places in Poland called “Ostatni Grosz,” which means more or less “Last Penny.” Two of them have been absorbed into towns; one is now part of Częstochowa, and one is now part of Dobrzyń nad Wisłą. The others are small settlements in Gdańsk and Krotoszyn counties. If you’re curious, the link above is to the disambiguation page of Polish Wikipedia, with links to articles on each place. The entry on the Ostatni Grosz that’s part of Częstochowa explains the name comes either from the poverty of its inhabitants at one time (that is, they were down to their last penny), or from the tavern there where people drank up their last penny. Living as I do in a state with places named Loco, Kermit, Cut and Shoot, White Settlement, Jot ’Em Down, Ding Dong, No Trees, and Gun Barrel City, I’ve developed a fondness for unusual place names. ______

Debbie Greenlee shared this link to the Bukowsko Triangle mailing list. It shows the marketplace in Sanok. If you’d like to see live video from other places in Poland, an online search for “Webcams in Poland” gives you plenty of options. Just remember the time difference: Poland is six hours ahead of U.S. East Coast time, seven ahead of Central.
