<\/a><\/p>\n1965 Worcester County Directory Entry for Markiewicz<\/em><\/p>\n Click on the link for a PDF copy of the Worcester City Directory Record for the Surname Markiewicz – 1965<\/a> .\u00a0 The entry shows the following members of the Stanley Markiewicz family:<\/p>\n Stanley’s daughters Bernice and Helen are not listed under Markiewicz .\u00a0 They would be listed with their husbands .\u00a0 Admittedly, it’s difficult to be sure that Stephen, Walter, Edward, and Richard are actually Stanley’s sons from this information alone .\u00a0 Knowledge of the occupations of the sons or the names of the sons’ wives would help confirm that the four men are, in fact, Stanley’s sons .\u00a0 Jane, on the other hand, is living with Stanley and Antonia, suggesting that\u00c2\u00a0she is probably Stanley’s daughter.<\/p>\n A review of the obituaries for Stephen, Walter, and Edward confirms that the entries for these three men in the 1965 City Directory are, indeed, for Stanley’s sons .\u00a0 The epitaph on Richard’s gravestone indicates that Richard’s wife was named Teresa, confirming that the entry for Richard in the 1965 City Directory is for Stanley’s fourth son.<\/p>\n The information in the directory provides good information on residence, occupation, and marital status at the time the directory was written .\u00a0 Since the directory was written a year before it was published, the information in the 1965 City Directory was probably accurate in 1964.<\/p>\n Following an individual through time in the City Directory can provide approximate dates of employment at a given company, approximate year of marriage, approximate year of death of spouse (if the entry indicates that someone was a widow\/widower), and the dates at which someone lived at a given address.<\/p>\n The entire page on which the Markiewicz entries appear is shown below.<\/p>\n Page 639 of the 1965 Worcester County Directory<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em>Copyright \u00a9 2006 by Stephen J.
