Notes for Michaelis GIZEWSKI
I don't know who Michaels parents were. Roy seemed to think Michaels father's name was Michael. I found a relation that lived in Ohio, Eva Gizewski Stefanski. I don't know if she was another sister or a cousin. I spoke with my cousin Louise, her grandfather and grandmother (Joseph Gizewski) moved back to Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio during the depression hope to find employment. They stayed with the Stefanski family before returning back to Colorado. Louise said her grandparents sent letters and gifts back and forth for years. Which makes sense why Michael would have stayed in Cleveland for awhile after he lost Frances (Laska) Gizewski. With 4 kids, Eva would have most likely helped take care of them. Anyway, her youngest son reported Eva's fathers name as Wridstat.626

[John’s question] 11. "Mihilie "Michael" Gizewski & Franciska Laska mr 1” any other important info in here?
      (11)  This was from Ohio Dioses.  The record is for Michael and Franciska Laska' marriage in 1888.  The important information is their parents names, which I've connected to Eva Gizewka Stefanski as Michaels sister.   Michael was 23 when he married Franciska Laska, she was 19.  Micheals father name (below his) is Michaelis Giziewski and his mothers name is Mariannae (not sure on the handwriting for the last name) looking at it today it looks like it could be, Szejkoioska, Roy Merrick thought it was Lizjshows.  I don't know.  Just trying to do comparisons to other words on the document. Carrie Kelso 220
