Polish families living in the U.S. during WWI might have been on the wrong
side of the conflict. If they were from the Austrian or Prussian
partitions, they would have been enemies of the U.S., like the resident
Japanese during WWII. On another of my lines, a German family, they changed
their surname in order to avoid discrimination and continue their business
in the community during WWII. Am I wrong to assume the same kinds of
feelings might have been generated against the Poles during WWI? Carol
