First time I've seen a a familar name(Margonin). I didn't see Aronstein post,but
my faternal gggrandfather Joseph Kuehn came from that area.I believe he was born
in the parish of Jactorows. His brother Stephen had made a land transaction in
Margonin in 1901. My gggrandfather immigrated to the US in 1868.
