I am trying to locate any family of Rose T. Zakrzewski Anderson or her husband, Bernard
Anderson. They are both buried at Hollywood Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Florida. I am
related to Rose through my grandmother, Angeline Barbara Mendyk. Angeline’s mother was a
Zakrzewski, and the half-sister to Joseph Zakrzewski, Rose’s father. I am not only trying
to find family to meet them! but to find the burial place of Rose's brother, August,
who died in California in September of 1923. August is buried in Omaha at St. Mary
Magdalene Cemetery, but the cemetery office has lost the book with his burial info and I
cannot find a marker. I have tried everything - the VA (he was a sailor and died in a
shipwreck), the monument companies in Omaha, the funeral home, the church, etc. NO luck
yet!
Please help me!! We know he's here because I have church records for his burial and
articles from the Omaha World-Herald newspaper that say he's there.
Also trying to find anyone related to Rose's sister, Anna Gajewski, who supposedly was
married to a man from Chicago, according to a newspaper article at the time of
August's death. Also searching for Frank Zack, brother of Rose. Frank was listed as
living in Arizona at the time Rose died. Obviously, he must have changed his name at some
point.
Rose, Frank, August & Anna were all children of Joseph & Mary/Maria/Maryana
Zakrzewski. Mary died in 1910 in Omaha Nebraska and Joseph died in 1942 in Illionis.
