| Notes | 
Kotwica was a cousin of the Myczkowski family, along with Murawski, Trezciac, and Osinski (married Lisek) families.  The connection is through marriages in Poland, so it isn't possible to establish the exact links at this time.  John Zabka told me that the Kotwica's lived on Ansel Ave, which was quite a distance from the main grouping of families that were around the Fleet Ave area, so they didn't get to see them that often and then lost touch altogether.
