No children of their own -- raised Bruno Grodzik, an orphan when his parents died in a car crash.

IMMIGRATION:
The Ellis Island site has a listing for Antoni Czacherski of Berkowo arriving in NYC on May 11, 1907 aboard The Graf Waldersee out of Hamburg. He lists his destination as an Aunt Maria Skorlickaska(?) of 457 Henderson St., Jersey City, NJ. His age is listed as 18. I'm not sure if this is the same Anthony but since the family was from Borkowo, this may be him or possibly a relative. Also, the 1920 and 1930 Census lists him as having arrived in 1907 so it would appear that this could be the correct person at the Ellis Island site.

RESIDENCES:
1910 - Woodin Hill Road, Cleveland, Ohio (per 1920 census -- no address shown)

1. 2. Bruno GRODZIK   b. 4 Aug 1919, Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio, USA; d. 25 Dec 2000, Saint Petersburg, Pinellas, Florida.

Foster child of Anthony Czacherski. Parents killed in a car accident. Lived with Piotrowski for awhile and also Vincent Wanicki, but Anthony Czacherski had no children so wanted him. Rumor has it that he was only wanted to be a workhand on the farm. Bruno was not yet living with them in 1930 as the census shows only Anthony and his wife. He is not shown in the 1930 census at the Wanicki household, either.

Searched 1930 census index for any Bronislaw or Bruno age about 11 with no success.

Possible parents:
KIEDA, PETRONELLA and GRODZIK, JULIAN 0103 0250 94
[UPDATE -- yes, the above couple are the right ones.]
ZAWADSKI, ROSE and GRODZIK, MICHAEL 0118 0240 19 00
[NOTE -- this is NOT Julius' brother. Michael's death certificate specifies different parents.]

Birth and death dates obtained from SSDI entry for Bruno Czacherski. This is probably my error as there was a Bruno Czacherski elsewhere in the family. Bruno Grozdik may not have changed his name.
