February 5, 2017 — New Third Cousin (Magdalena Maczynska)

Dear William, Daniel, Catherine, Michael, and Sarah, (and your parents), (and any future descendants and their parents),

Congratulations! You have a NEW Third Cousin! Her name is Magdalena Maczynska, and she was born on February 1, 2017, in Warszawa Poland.

Probably, the easiest way for you to understand this Family Tree is to print it out, and then paste the pages together (each next to each other) — to do so, go HERE.

As you can see from this Family Tree, Magdalena is the daughter of Marek’s, Rysiu’s, & Malgosia’s Second Cousin, Kasia Maczynska (nee Tomala), who is the daughter of my First Cousin, Roza Tomala (nee Bobrowska), who is the daughter of my Dad’s sister, Teresa Bobrowska (nee Kostro).

I met Kasia (Magdalena’s Mom), when Malgosia, John, Marek, Kelly, Babcia Krysia and I traveled to Poland in 2006 — I started telling you about that trip HERE (unfortunately, I never got around to telling you the rest of that story — maybe I will have a chance to do so soon).

Anyway, on our second day in Poland, we attended a dinner hosted by my First Cousin Roza and her family. That is when I met Kasia.

On May 26, 2012, Kasia married Piotr Mączyński.

Together, Piotr and Kasia set up a photography business — FlipFrames

Piotr & Kasia

I hope that each of you will have the chance to open your own business some day — it is hard work, but it can be very rewarding.

Today is the Superbowl — so, I have to run (I need to prepare some snacks).

Love,

Dziadziuś Paweł.
