Eric,
I am Laura Cella, your 3rd cousin.I have the book published by Carol Johnson, and all sorts of info collected from my family and Ruth Penz.I wouldn't say Michael was from Gdansk.He was born in Schubin/Szubin, lived in Slonawy and Scho"nlanke before coming to the States.He did have three wives.I come from the 3rd one.
My parents still live in Minn, near the homestead.I have lived in Central Texas for 22 years.
