Thomas Czarniecki,
age 17, of Independence, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, was killed in a car
accident. Thomas was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard CZARNIECKI. This
undated clipping from an unknown Cleveland newspaper was found in a photo
album that belonged to my grandmother Marie KIBBEE ROSNAGEL. According the
Cleveland Public Library's online necrology files this accident occurred
in February, 1975.
Here is what I've been able to find on the CZARNIECKI family. The
marriage of Leonard CZARNIECKI and Florence MAJSTEREK is recorded in the
Cuyahoga County Probate Court, volume 234 page 142. I'm not sure what year
this would be but probably before 1944. Mr. and Mrs. Leonard CZARNIECKI
attended the funeral of Mary Ellen ROSNAGEL in February, 1947 (follow this
link to view a transcription
of the book - page 4 - and an image
of the page). The necrology files at the Cleveland Public Library site
give the parents of Thomas as Leonard W. CZARNIECKI and Florence
MAJSTEREK. His siblings are Leonard Jr., Sharon Detrick, and James.
Leonard's parents may have been Kazimer/Casimer CZARNIECKI and Helen
SZEZECHOWSKI. The father of Florence may have been Frank MAJSTEREK. In
short, I figured out enough to know this is not my family but probably
friends of my grandparents. |
