My grandfather on my dad's side was Peter Gancarz who was married to Mary (maiden name?).He died in 1958 and so did she.They had a son Michael, daughter Stella and son Walter (died at 16).Peter was probably born in 1880s as was Mary.I seem to remember hearing that they had lived in Pennsylvania earlier in their lives.They had their children in Conn.My dad and his sister are in their 80s.It also seems there were Gancarz in New York City (Peter's brother maybe) who changed their name to Ganz.There was a Barbara Bokowsky in also who is deceased.She was either Peter or Mary's sister.Very confusing, I know.Maybe Sofia and Frank were my grandfather's folks or related somehow.My grandparents died when I was 6 in '58.
