===================

Ignacy's birth year was listed as 1864 on his naturalization paper. The month and day are from the naturalization paper. The year I used is from his tombstone. Ignacy (aka Ignatius) immigrated from Poland in 1873 with his parents and three sisters. They settled in South Bend. His parents had three more sons. Ignacy married Veronica Wojciechowska about 1887. They had 6 children: Harry, Bert, Walter, Leo, Sylvester, and Helena. Son Sylvester's tombstone #80803885 is located near his grandparents' tombstone. Daughter Helena married a Barkowski.

Ignacy's parents were John (80803200) and Kate (80803328)
Liszewski. Below is John's obituary from the South Bend News-Times, 5 Jan 1914.
