M m Origins of the BROZ surname by Paul Kulas N n A 4 When beginning Polish genealogical research, one soon finds that the Polish 2 alphabet is a bit different from the English alphabet. As can be seen from the 2 alphabet shown on this page, the Polish version has two sets of As, Cs, Es, Ls, B b Ns, Os and Ss and three sets of Zs.ln addition, the Polish alphabet has no Q,V N n or X. This sometimes causes confusion in the beginning researcher. In an English language works listing Polish surnames or place names these letter C c differences are usually ignored when alphabetized. In a Polish language name o o 2 list or atlas, however, these additional letters are considered different letters .2 , and are alphabetized accordingly (There will be two different L listings (L and , C c L) na Polish rndex--Lub/in is listed before Udi, for example). o o One needs to remember these differences when looking up Polish surnames in Remut's Slownik nazwisk.. . . Walter Madura, PGS-MN member from Derby, CT, recently requested a report on the BROZ surname. When Polish D d immigrants came to America, they usually dropped any diacritical makings P from their sumame. Therefore, Broz might have originally been spelled one of six different ways: Broz, Broi, Broi, Brdz, Brdi, Br62.Each name is pro- E, nounced a bit differently. Interestingly, Remut lists each of these spellings in R their appropriate places in the B volume of. Slownik nazwisk. . . . The Broz surname is probably correctly spelled Broi--this is the most common spelling. According to Hoffman's Polish Surnames: Origins and S s E e , Meanings, the name is derived from the Polish given name Ambroiy. Accord- , ing to Slownik nazwisk. . . the Broi surname appeared only 119 times in a F f Polish governmental agency's records in 1990. It is therefore an uncommon S s Polish sumame. A map showing the distribution of this spelling of the surname is shown on page 9 (Map 1). It occurs most frequently in PrzemySl province. It (r also occurs in provinces along the western border from Szczecin to Katowice G t and in Elblqg province in the north. T t The Brof spelling occurs 94 times in a Polish govemmental agency's records in 1990. It is therefore even less common than Bro2. Distribution of H h the Broi surname is shown on Map 2 onpage 9. Again, it is most common in U PrzemySl province. Other provinces with high incidences of the surname are O Gorz6w Wielkopolski, Suwalki and Biatystok provinces. The 8162 spelling I I occured 81 times in 1990. So it is less common the either Broi or Broi- Distri- w bution of the 8162 sumame is shown on Map 3 on page 9. Notice that is by far o the most common in Rzesz6w province, just next door to PrzemySl province. J Taking these distributions as a whole it is likely the Broz surname Y J originated is southeastern Poland (in Galicia)--probably in the Rzesz6w, v PrzemySl area.I would ignore the occurrences along the western border and in northern Poland as the origin of the surname, because many Poles from the east K k moved unto property in these areas that was vacated by Germans after WWII Z Z (See map: "The Recovered Territories," PGS-MN Newsletter, Autumn 2000, 2 2 I p.20). Z Z L Of the other spellings of the surname that appear n Slownik nazwisk. . . ; a the 816z spelling occurs 22times,the Br6t spelling occurs 10 times and the a Broz spelkng occurc 6 times. The distribution to these names shed little addi- *, t tional light on the matter of where the Broz sumame might have originated.

However, the birth of the PNCC illustrates the religious, ethnic, and national tensions of American Polonia's middle years more powerfully than almost any other phenomenon. One would be hard-pressed to have identified Scranton, Pennsylvania as the site of the only significant schism eulYctEZYMl in the Roman Catholic Church in the 20th century; yet it was there, rn 1897, out of a struggle for the control of parish finances and real estate, that a stubborn and Emblem and motto of the Polish National proud congregation of Polish immigrants made its split Catholic Church: 66Through truth, work, with its diocesan hierarchy and ultimately with Rome. and struggle, we will triumph."

Grotnik starts with a listing of all articles published rnStrai during this volume's span in time, alphabetized by author and title or heading, with a key number assigned to each one. The second phase of the volume is a multi-part index to the articles, organized around particular focuses- - subjects, name s, obituaries, geographic locations, and PNU branches. The index has some omissions, probably caused by errors in transcription; in searching for articles on Minnesota locations, I tbund several instances where articles on the same places were listed in the first phase, but missing from the appropriate categories in the second. Also, it seems that the second phase covers only those personal and place names noted in the articles' titles, and does not include names mentioned in their text. (The first shortcoming is remedied in pat by checking in the article listing immediately before or after the items whose key numbers are given under the geo- graphic names in the second part; reportage on some locales,like ours, tended to clump in time.) Regard- less, this is a very useful item for genealogists with family connections to the early years of the PNCC-- there is again a long list of published necrologies of congregants--and for historians of Polish communities where it established a presence. There are numerous entries for articles on the Duluth and Minneapolis congregations, at least some of which contain good genealogical information. And those who find such leads have a ready local source for the originals; the Immigration History Research Center at the University of Minnesota has a very substantial microfilmed run of both of the PNCC's major newspapers.

The framing piece that opens the volume is a good recap of Polish-American settlement in its first haH- century, from the perspective of a native Pole. The re- mainder of the book combines a detailed narrative of the early and middle years of the PNCC in its East Coast heartland, with a sociological analysis of its place in the dynamic of 2fth-century Americanization. The translation is a joint effort of American and Polish academics; the rendering sounds quite natural to an American and reads well to a layperson. While Prof. Kubiak treats his subject from the detached perspec- tives of a European and a non-member of the PNCC, he clearly has great empathy for the dilemma of divid- ed allegiances that beset the immigrant generation of American Polonia. Paul Fox, The Polish NationalCatholic Church (Scranton, PA: School of Christian Living, n.d t19571). This narrative history of the PNCC was writ- ten by a retfued Presbyterian minister of Polish birth. (His story appears fascinating enough in itseH: born in Silesia, he eamed his Ph.D. at Johns Hopkins Univer- sity while tending to a Polish-ethnic Presbyterian par- ish in Baltimore, did field work in social work, lec- tured for t€n years at Northwestern University, and published extensively on Polish language and culture, Polish-American history, and theology.) It covers the PNCC's spread in Poland in as much detail as its North American content. It also reprints liturgical texts, including the form of the PNCC Mass in use at the time of its publication.
