My Polish Greatgrandmother


I found this photo a few years ago, it is of my greatgrandmother Jozefa Mądrzejewski (seated) and my greataunt Carrie (Kasmira) Stube (left) and my grandmother Verna (Veronika) Condon (right.)

I am amazed at how much my mother and grandmother looked like greatgrandma when they were older. It's like looking at a familiar face ... but knowing I have never seen it before. This is one of only two photographs I have ever seen of my greatgrandmother Jozefa.

(The name Mądrzejewski is now spelled Modjeski by the family still carrying that surname.)
