Notes:

Anecdote:
Katherine, who was married to Casimir Luczak at the time, had just had a baby. Her husband had been mistreating her, so she decided to take the baby and go to Annie Polka's farm. She got off of the train on a cold November day with the newborn baby in her arms. It was very cold and the wind was blowing hard. As she crossed a fence on her way to the Polka farm, she hung her dress up in the barb wire. Becaused of her weakened state and the cold, she could not free herself. She died out in the cold and by the time the Polka's found her, the baby was also suffering from exposure. The baby died a few weeks later.

Died:
Her death date is based on the fact that her husband remarried in 1910. He was listed as a widower.
