I am interested in the last name of “Mitoraj”. I do genealogy. My grandfather is John Mitoraj, or Janz (something like that). He came over to the US and sent for his mother who arrived at Ellis Island, but because she could not speak English, and the language barrier, they sent her back to Europe on a boat because they didn’t know where to send her or who to contact. My grandfather had saved a lot of money to bring her over. He never got over that incident.

Hi Rebecca,
I don’t know much about Igor Mitoraj at all beyond his being Polish and a sculptor. So the name is Polish, yes? I’d recommend looking for some Polish sites but I imagine you’d have to speak the language first to make use of those.
