In the 1920 Census, Andrzej (Andrew) and Marja (Mary) Czernek are homeowners living in Buffalo, NY in the 9th Ward at 1093 Smith Street and 182 Detroit Street. This site has at least one of those addresses enumerated: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~polish/index.htm I haven't been able to find them using a manual search in the 1930 Census; they are not at the same address. They are in Buffalo, probably in the same neighborhood, though I've searched the EDs and failed. I'm hoping that someone with access to Ancestry.com or another site might be able to find them. Best regards, Omnivorous-GA |

It appears there is a Mary Czernek and her 14 year old son Edward Czernek livng in Buffalo, but no Andrew. I'll list the information here, and a link to a posting of the census page image. I don't know how to determine the address from the images, so I can't give you that info. Czernek, Mary Age: 56 Birthplace: Poland Roll: T626_1426 Race: White Page: 12A State: New York ED:120 County: Erie Image: 0502 Township: Buffalo Relationship: Head Czernek, Edward Age: 14 Year:1930 Birthplace: Roll:T626_1426 Race: Page:12A State: New York ED:120 County: Erie Image:0502 Township: Buffalo Relationship: Son I placed a copy of the scan at http://www.uptondesign.com/czernek4.jpg Let me know if I can give you any more information. |

Dyermaker -- You're a champ. I have access to NARA microfilms and will get the full page and address. Andrew and Mary were separated (though they reported their marriage arrangements differently in the 1920 Census). There are always surprises in this -- Robert Falke is also living in the same residence. Mr. Falke later went on to join the Army paratroops in WWII and was one of the first to land in Normandy. He later became the president of Eagle Stamp Co. in Cleveland. You've made my Thanksgiving, even if apparently you're not a Google researcher! Best regards, Omnivorous-GA |

Could you tell me how to tell the street address from the census sheets? It seems in some of the older census' they wrote the street in the margin, but most of the time I can't read it. On the 1930, I don't see that. I can never figure out the actual house #. BTW, there was no Andrew Czernek in the 1930 New York census, by my search. |

Dyermaker -- First, you have to understand how exciting all of this is. It's prompted me to call my cousin, as he's still living in the same address as 25 years ago (when I last saw him). I think that I'll wait until later today, inasmuch as I'm going for maximum surprise!! As you note, the addresses are typically written in the margin. Inasmuch as they were enumerating house-by-house, the street may well be written on the previous page. I won't get a chance to check these microfilms at NARA today but will definitely let you know within the next week. There's a possibility that the last name is misspelled (often Czernik), if your database isn't Soundexed. BTW, I've tried to send you a private e-mail via your web address admin e-mail (@att.bi.com instead of home.com). Best regards, Omnivorous-GA |
