Ancestry/Genealogy

I have a feeling the Lithuanians were not the only ones who did this. My husband's family were Polish on both sides. All of his grandparents were immigrants, but his parents were born and grew up in a Polish neighborhood in Chicago.

My father in law was baptized in a Catholic church in that Polish neighborhood. We have a copy of his baptismal certificate that shows his first and middle names as Stanislaus Boleslaus. I was really surprised when I first saw it, because I knew him as William Paul [Lastname].
