Research

I hope that you are enjoying this site. The information shared on this site is accomplished through the efforts of several family members. Contributions of documents, v-mail from WWII, pictures, and vital papers have been contributed. Below I have listed what research has been done and the current information that is being sought.

Any effort that is made to help in this project is greatly appreciated and information of any size is welcome. Sometimes we are unaware of how important a small note is regarding research. The v-mail that is posted on the "Documents" page seems like just a note to a sister, but gives tell-tale signs of names, ages and the location of individuals on the date of the mail. Things like this help to confirm or disprove other research that has been done and is more helpful than you may realize.

If you have any of the documents being sought or other information, please let me know as soon as possible. Continue to check back here frequently since the needs will change as information is obtained. Thank you.


RESEARCH IN PROCESS:

At this point it appears that no one from the Samek family aside from Zofia immigrated and became a citizen of the United States. Though her father, Albert, worked for many years here, it seems that he never naturalized and returned to Poland prior to WWII. I do have a 1920 census that might have included Albert, but it is unclear at this point. Other than the ship manifest for Zofia, it is most likely that she naturalized by marrying Frederick Jacob William Arnold and therefore no papers would be available.

Letters to Poland would have to be written and sent in search of church records. If there is enough interest I will pursue this venue.


THE FOLLOWING ITEMS ARE CURRENTLY BEING SOUGHT:

1. Death certificate for Helen SAMEK ARNOLD
2. Naturalization papers, if available, for Sophie SAMEK ARNOLD
3. Ship record for Albert SAMEK
