This saga begins with the story that was told to me by Dan Stuczynski 
who is currently living in Detriot, Michigan and works as a Design Engineer 
for the Ford Motor Company. I found Dan through his wife whose name was listed 
on the Internet.

In the beginning

	The story starts at the end of the 13th century, about 1250 to 
1270 A.D. when warriors from the Stuczynski clan joined forces to fight in 
the Holy Wars or Crusades. Upon returning from the Wars, the few Stuczynskis 
that survived, were granted a large parcel of land in Northeastern Poland 
(near the Russian border) known as "Stuczyn". Then Clan nobles managed this 
land and its people for hundreds of years.

The Story continues

        This story continues with the information told to me by Marek 
Stuczynski who is currently living in Poznan, Poland and has a Phd in plant 
genetics. Marek found me surfing the Web and that's how this whole thing 
started.

	All was fine in the Stuczynski clan until sometime in the 19th century 
(1800's A.D.), when the Czar of Russia's armies invaded Poland and the family 
lost their land. Most of the Stuczynskis were exiled to Siberia. Others managed
to escape to western Poland from which point they dispersed worldwide.

• Central Massachusetts, U.S.A.
