My adopted son, David Allen Polites, was killed 7 August 1979. At the time of David's death, his son was less than 2 years old. His son never really knew his father or his father's family. I have been putting together a biography of his dad's life to give to him and his new born son.
David Allen Polites was the son of Alexander Politis, born 1906 in Atlas, Northumberland, PA and Mary (Domulewicz) Polites born 1912 in Atlas, Northumberland, PA. Alexander Politis' father was William Vincent Politis or Vincent William Politis and his wife was Helen (Tloczynski) Politis.
Mary (Domulewicz) Politis was the daughter of Franz Domulewicz who came to the United States from Lithuania in 1907 and settled in Atlas, PA. His brother, Piotr (Peter) came with his brother. At that point, I have lost him. I'm wondering if the Peter Domulewicz who was born 18 Nov 1890 and passed away in Sep 1973 is the same man.
The children of Alexander Politiis and Mary Politis: Alexander Polites b. 1930?; William F b. 1931; Thomas Robert b. 1934 d. 1987; Jean (Polites) Zerbarini b. 1934 d. 1997 East Meadow NY; Peter d. 1956; Leroy b. 1946 d. 1999 Rutherford NJ; David AllenPolites (my son) b. 30 June 1950 Jersey City NJ d. 7 August 1979 Liberty TX.
If you know anything about the Domulewicz line, particularly as it pertains to Mary (Domulewicz) Polites, I would be most grateful to hear about it. Birth dates. death dates, ancestors. sisters and brother, burial sites, whatever. it would be most helpful.
If you are interested in these people, I would be happy to send you whatever information I have.
