Julianna Kulas nee Wierzba’s Death Certificate
This past weekend, I was able to find the Death Certificate of Julianna Kulas nee Wierzba at the Golda Meier Library (UW-Milwaukee). This was a very cool find because it solidified my theory and other research that connected Julianna Kulas nee Wierzba as a sister to my g-g-grandfather Wincenty Wierzba. The Death Certificate states that her parents were Bartlomiej Wierzba and Rozalia Wierzba. This validates my Lipusz Parish research. The record is below:
Source: Wisconsin. Milwaukee, County of. Register of Deaths 1852-1912. Register of Deeds. Milwaukee Micro Series 11. Reel 58. Volume 170, 1899 (GSU Reel 1013663). Record 334. University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Milwaukee.
The other record that I am trying to locate is the Death Certificate of Jozefina Nitza/Nica nee Wierzba (Josepha Nicza on the Death Certificate). I am almost positive that this is the same Jozefina Wierzba who was from the Lipusz Parish records and the daughter of Bartlomiej and Rozalia Wierzba. This find would help complete (if there is such a thing 🙂) the Wierzba’s to Milwaukee immigration story.
Best Regards,
