I am researching the Konowalczyk, Konowalczak family of Krzywe, and Ulesie, Olesin. Feliz
Konowalczyk came to the US first from 1905-1910. He left the country sometime after the
1910 Census and returned to Olesin/Krzywe where he married Fisha Szanadja of Krzywe. I
have tracked several individuals from the area you are researching back and forth to
Philadelphia in the Frankford section of the city. Kazimerz Miziorko listed his
destination as his brother-in-law, Feliks Konowalczuk in Philadelphia. Kasimerz ' wife
was Marta in Olesie. I have found many other surnames from this area: Granik, Halasa,
Prosciak, Bubay, and Krzyzanowski, for example. I believe they were all ethnic Ruthenians,
Polish-speaking and Roman Catholic. Would like to share information. Thanks, Donna
