Dominic&#8217;s first name was listed in other records as Dam, Dominick, or Damian, and his surname was spelled in a number of different ways. The correct spelling of his name was probably Damjan Niedzia\u0142kowski.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a class=\"imagelink\" title=\"1930 US Federal Census Record for Dominic Niedzialkowsky - Left Side\" href=\"https:\/\/stephendanko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/CUS-1930-Niedzialkowski-Dominick-Left.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"image2502\" style=\"width: 466px; height: 202px\" height=\"202\" alt=\"1930 US Federal Census Record for Dominic Niedzialkowsky - Left Side\" src=\"https:\/\/stephendanko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/CUS-1930-Niedzialkowski-Dominick-Left.jpg\" width=\"466\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><em>1930 US Federal Census Record for Dominic Niedzialkowsky (Left)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a class=\"imagelink\" title=\"1930 US Federal Census Record for Dominic Niedzialkowsky - Right Side\" href=\"https:\/\/stephendanko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/CUS-1930-Niedzialkowski-Dominick-Right.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"image2503\" style=\"width: 460px; height: 197px\" height=\"197\" alt=\"1930 US Federal Census Record for Dominic Niedzialkowsky - Right Side\" src=\"https:\/\/stephendanko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/CUS-1930-Niedzialkowski-Dominick-Right.jpg\" width=\"460\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><em>1930 US Federal Census Record for Dominic Niedzialkowsky (Right)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SOURCE: SOURCE: 1930 U.S. Census, Worcester County, Massachusetts, population schedule, Worcester City, Ward 3, enumeration district (ED) 14-85, sheet 10-A, dwelling 10, family 219, Dominick Niedzialkowski; digital image, Ancestry.com (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ancestry.com\/\">http:\/\/www.ancestry.com<\/a> : accessed 08 May 2008); citing National Archives microfilm publication T626E, roll 970.<\/p>\n<p>The source citation above complies with the recommendations in Mills, Elizabeth Shown. 2007.

Dominic and Caroline were married in about 1925-1926. Now, I have enough information to look for Dominic&#8217;s baptismal record in Szwelice, the parish for the village of Pomaski where he was born. I also have enough information to look for his marriage record and his daughter&#8217;s birth record in Massachusetts.<\/p>\n<p>I would not have been able to find this record if I had only relied on the indexes on Ancestry.com. In the end, I was able to easily find the record by finding Dominic in the Worcester City Directories for 1929 and 1930, and then by finding the enumeration district using Steve Morse&#8217;s One-Step Webpages.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">Copyright \u00a9 2008 by Stephen J.
