Photos of Gulcz - 1999 and 2004
Main street in Gulcz on a rainy day - 1999. |
Post office in Gulcz - 1999. Some family stories stated that Hipolit Polfus may have been the postmaster of Gulcz before coming to Chicago. |
New church in Gulcz. This church was not there when the Pyterek and Polfus families lived there. The parish was Lubasz in those days. |
A small shine across from the post office. |
This is a part of Gulcz I missed in 1999 but found with the help of the mayor in 2004. |
Me (right) with the soltys (mayor) of Gulcz, Arkadiusz Goraczka, in 2004. He gave me a tour of Gulcz and showed me his records of the Gulcz-Stevns Point Wisconsin sister city agreement. |
