Both Feliksa and Jozef, my maternal grandparents, you could met in my previous posts. Now the moment came when they met, or rather first photos of them together.
So we go back to 1935, carnival time. My grandma to the right.
And here Feliksa sitting left, Jozef standing right. Probably they had great ball then. I hope so.
Walking picture taken probably before their wedding. Anyway 1935, Lublin.
Jozef in student's suit.
And here
just married, 22nd of April 1935. Lublin. Jozef in a prison service suit. In 1930s, when you worked in a state service, you shall to wear your suit during wedding.
Jozef got married in a secret. Then he brought his new wife in front of his mother (Jozef's father, Jan, died in 1928). I do not know her reaction.
And here probably fall of 1935 in Lublin. Then it means that my mother is 'in place' ;-).
So we go back to 1935, carnival time. My grandma to the right.

I like the walking photographs so much. It's such a nice idea to have your photo taken just on the spur of the moment. I hope your grandfather's mother was happy about the marriage. Or was at least welcoming to your grandmother!
Wonderful photos. All kinds of stories come to mind. Some reminders of movies I have seen. A great post.

They are very handsome photos of two lovely people. How nice that you have these from before their marriage walking along. They appear to have remained in step a long time! Wonderful.
I love the dress in the walking photograph - a very stylish lady in all your pictures :-)
I love the walking pictures. They look so very happy in all of them. What does "in place" mean?
Another great post. I am so enjoying following the fascinating story of your family. Great photographs and interesting descriptions.
this is the first time i've visited, i look forward to coming back when i have some more time and catching up
loved reading about your family history and the photos are wonderful so many smiles despite all that was happening around them in terms of the world's history. love makes people smile!
Just to be clear about that my mother was 'in place' (sorry for my English ;)) - I meant that my grandma had been already pregnant
Hi. I wondered if that's what "in place" meant. It's not your English. I think it's just an idiom. They don't translate well from one language to another. Thanks for answering.
What a wonderful series of photos. They tell such an interesting story. And they do look so happy all through them. I was also wondering what "in place" meant and then it came to me. It's a perfect way of saying it. I think I'm going to add it to my vocabulary.

I am curious to find out what you are saying in polish after Sepia Saturday. Tried to find out on the internet but did not get much help. Especially want to know what
członków is. My maiden name was Zion and could this be how my name was spelt before they came to the united states.
my family blog is www.myfamilyrootsrundeep.com and if you could let me know through that or my email address I would love to hear. grace
Hey-
My last name is "Feliksa" and our family has no knowledge of our relatives past my great-grandpa, Carl ("Karl?")Feliksa. He immigrated to Canada then settled in the Detroit, Michigan area. Do you know of any connections?
