It is thought that Paul and Elizabeth had another son or daughter who immigrated to Michigan. In the 1890s, the only Pajewskis in the Chicago Directory were Frank, Michael and John and all were thought to be our family. On 14 April 1894, a Frank Pajewski was baptized in St. Augustine Parish in Chicago to Andrew and Anna Pajewski. This is the same parish that our Frank, Michael and John were in. Perhaps Andrew is the brother from Michigan.	If you wish to correct or add any data on this Family Chart, contact Dave and include the Family Chart title.
