Theresa and Her Sisters
Theresa (Kufta) Parkanzky (my 1rst cousin 1x removed) had two older siblings, who are both now deceased. Wanda was born in 1927 and married Joseph Kozicki in 1950. They had three children. Wanda died in 2020. Irene was born in 1928 and married Albert Mastee in 1948. They had two children. Irene died in 2019. Theresa was born in 1935 and married Ernest Parkanzky in 1958. They had six children.
The picture is labeled that Irene was a Campbell Wyant Cannon Plant One employee. This was an iron foundry, started in 1908, that employed 7,000 people at its peak. Muskegon is a port city on Lake Michigan. It had an industrial surge in the early 1900’s which attracted many immigrants from Poland and other countries.
Muskegon Causeway Park is now called Memorial Park. https://www.muskegon-mi.gov/departments/parks/veterans-memorial/
