Dear Eliz

I ask you to contact me at my e-mail: andrzej_olejarz@wp.pl
I'll send you the files with data on my ancestors, their families and their relatives in Illinois and other states in the Great Lakes because they are mainly there to live after his arrival to the U.S. to this day.

Hello Eliz!
I received your files on Olejarz families in the U.S. I also have a large collection of personal data of my forefathers - immigrants to the United States, and their American families from about 1910 to the present day. The problem is that in many cases I can not associate the people who left the U.S. with their families in Poland and in the U.S.A. My ancestors emigrated and settled in the U.S.A. or returned to Poland after a few years in the U.S. Sometimes they even come to the U.S.A. several times. These immigrant named Olejarz was quite a lot. They came to the U.S.A. from different localities in Poland. They settled in after arriving in the U.S. mainly in the states bordering the Great Lakes or their descendants from the time they settled in another neighboring states. I make just migration routes Olejarz American families from Ellis Island to Michigan. I intend to develop them and then lead them to Poland, and here - to the common cradle of our race in Podkarpacie Voievodeship (Subcarpathian Province) in the south-eastern Poland. In the email I send you some files. They can help you in locating information about these people by the name of Olejarz, who settled in Illinois, and which I unsuccessfully looking for a long time. These are primarily data from the U.S. search engine people. I have more of such data. But their usefulness is very limited. We are left in contact. We warmly greet you from Wroclaw, Poland from a distant.

Andrew (in Polish: Andrzej) Olejarz ;)

Węgier jako dziecko, to bardzo zardzewiałe teraz, ale mam cieszyć się polską muzykę, mógłbym tańczyć zanim mogłem chodzić, jak moja matka mawiała

Erzsebet

( these days I have to use a translator program, I understand Hungarian spoken, much better than I read it.. I should have paid more attention in years past, my Mother spoke, German, Hungarian, Polish, English, she could also write in all of them.. I have to admit I do miss hearing it.)
