Yep, I’m trying to catch up! A second post in one night. My apologies to you who get updates via email, I have a love/hate relationship with email and can sympathize.
But again, due to the generosity of the genealogical community, I have a copy of a Mierzejewski marriage record from St. Mary Magdalene Parish in Perrysburg, Ohio. I had clues via Garret Mierzejewski that there were Mierzejewskis who settled in Wood County; however, I could never connect the dots with my family.
The record reflects the marriage of a Constantine Mierzejewski and Geraldine DeWitt:
- Constantine was born 18 December 1913, son of John and Constance Sikorska
- Geraldine was born 22 April 1917, daughter of Grey and Ethel Roach
- Marriage witnessed by William Baginski and Rose? Mierzejewska (I cannot transcribe the first name, rough guess)
- The civil marriage occurred 29 July 1937 in Angola, Indiana and dispensation procured 21 September 1937
If you have any more knowledge of this family, please contact me. I’d be interested in learning if there is any connection between my family.

Hi your email finally triggered my memory of which Mierzejewski I knew. It was Chester Mierzejewski from Rossford Oh. I worked with him at Central Transport from 1969 to 1972. I just looked up his obituary and saw he died in 2007 at age 88 . Is he part of your family? I’m from Campbell st. and nativity parish.

I am not sure. There are many Mierzejewskis in and around NW Ohio and elsewhere. The plot thickens for me because my grandmother’s maiden name was Mierzejewski as well. I will have to trace down your hint. Thank you!
