Research Notes |
Joseph Whalen gives name as “Katerina Zieba.” Husband’s death certificate and obituary of son Victor give “Katharzyna Zemba.” Massachusetts Death Index lists Katharzy M. Glowka. Birth certificate of daughter Amelia lists “Katie Zaba.” Social Security Applications and Claims Index entry for son Edward lists surname as “Ziemba.” Obituary of son William gives surname as “Zenbia.” I have chosen to use “Ziemba” as this is the name on her Petition for Naturalization, which she herself would have completed.
Joseph Whalen gives birthplace as Kraków, Poland (but not in Kraków proper). Her Naturalization Petition lists Morki (or Marki), Austria. Marki is just northeast of Warsaw, about 40km from the birthplace of her husband. On the other hand, this area was under Russian, rather than Austrian control from before her birth until the end of the WWI. If there was another Marki/Morki in Austrian-controlled Poland (Galicia), I have been unable to find it. [1, 2, 7, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17] |
