Note: RESEARCH STANDARD APPLIED Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated November 29, 2020 Maryanna Mazur is my maternal third great aunt, which is via common ancestry with Joseph Mazur and Magdalena Janasek. Maryanna was initially identified in the obituary of her sister. Based on the application of recognized genealogical standards of proof, the descent and family structure of Maryanna Mazur is sufficiently established beyond any reasonable doubt. The basis for the descent of Maryanna begins with being named in the obituary of her sister Agnes, which identifies multiple surviving siblings. The death record of her sister Michalina identifies their parents as Joseph Mazur and Magdalena Janasek. The basis for the family structure begins with the census records. This has been subsequently supported with the additional interlocking records and documentation listed further below. 1843 BIRTH OF THEODORE BUKOWSKI Researched by Timothy J. Barron, updated December 6, 2020 Theodore Bukowski was born on Sunday, January 8, 1843, in what would be present day Boruszyn, Lubuskie, Poland.

The obituary names “Maryanna Bukowska” as a surviving sister of “Agnieszka Łukaszewka-Surma.” It was a common practice in Polish for a woman to feminize the spelling of their surname, such as changing the “ski” to “ska,” which is why Maryanna is listed as Bukowski, instead of Bukowska. 1920 CENSUS OF THE THEODORE BUKOWSKI FAMILY Researched by Timothy J.
