2. Re: [POLISH-PA] Boguszewski [1]
It's close with the yes but there's a tendancy to eliminate the W sound which is pronounced like a V.

Glad you have some "new" names and ways to research. I have a joke - maybe nobody else will think it's funny. After trying on my own to learn some Polish, I decided that Polish is the only language with 17 ways to spell the sound of sh - !

Actually, pronunciation is the easiest part of Polish. It's pronounced as it's spelled and vice versa, not like English which is a mish=mash. Get a Polish grammar that has a pronunciation guide, or listen to some Polish language tapes. It's not all that hard. I'd never heard Polish before I started learning it when I was in my mid 20's, and it was easier to learn than German. Regards, Mary Rose Brandt **************Planning your summer road trip?

6. [POLISH-PA] Olek,Philadelphia, PA 1907-2000 [1]
I am looking for information on the Oleks of Pennsylvania. Antonio Olek left Poland and arrived in the US in 1907. He went to Chicago, IL and then to Pennsyvania where I found him in the 1920 census. He was married to Tiafila? and then later to Lillian. He had one son John Anthony Olek. I would be glad to exchange information. Thanks for any help you might be able to give me. Jean

9. Re: [POLISH-PA] Boguszewski [1]
Thank you to all you answered. The name was shortened back in the 1890's to Bogus. When I found the original spelling I couldn't reconcile the spelling with the way an older family member remembered hearing it as Bow ga SHEF ski. This family was originally in Clearfield County and many migrated to Pittsburgh. Reading Polish language websites and even listing to the sound files hasn't really helped me. I couldn't get the SHEF sound from ZEW. Although, I did come up with the Bow ga Shes ski. I need
