~John Wojnarowski told me that he didn't think the father of Rev. Jarosz came to this country and that Jarosz is a common name like Smith. He recalls the mother as a widow but he didn't know where she lived. Dora Wolowiec told my mother that Anna lived for a time in the rectory with her son and then lived upstairs by Dora's sister's house.

The obituary of his son Rev. Joseph Jarosz.

RESIDENCES:
The ship manifest for Josef Jarosz shows that his destination was his father, Tony Jarosz, at 3701 Redman Ave., Cleveland. There is no such address on Redman, so it's possible that they lived at 3701 W13th St.
1920 - 1225 Redman Ave., Cleveland, Ohio (listed in 1920 Census as YAROSH, Anton

DEATH:
This MIGHT be Anthony Jarosz, though it seems unlikely because this date of death is BEFORE his son, Josef arrived in the U.S.:
