Augustow -- family

On the left, Stanislaus Parejko, Ron & my second cousin.

On the right, Melanie Talkowski, ditto.

In between, Melanie's son Andrzej and his wife Basia. I had been given Andrzej's address by a relative in Lithuania, and it was to his house I first walked up and introduced myself as a Parejko. He has a roofing business and repairs cars at his place. He has a two-stall garage with hoists & equipment...

They warm & friendly & interested in me & why I was there, but none of them knew any english...and I didn't know any Polish to speak of.
