My great grandmother's name was Anna THORACK. She was born in approx. 1860's. She was married to Johann ANDRZCKI (Born in 1866). They had 7 children. They were: Ellie, Francisca, Helena, Anna, Alois, Hans and Antonia. Antonia was my grandmother. They were a coal mining family originally coming from Poland to Germany in the late 1800's. Before Poland I don't know where they came from, possibly a Slavik country.

I am having a hard time finding any information on the surname THORACK. I have even contacted William Hoffman, the Polish name expert and he has not heard of it before. I have not found it in any databases either.

Any information would be helpful. Is your last name THORACK?

Thanks so much, Moka
