Vincent immigrated from Pozan, Poland. He and his wife came through Ellis Island on January 20, 1904 and brought with them five children: Stanislaw (8 months - called Stanley), Josefa (6 yrs) - Rosa's stepdaughter, Stanislawa (9 yrs - female), and Pelagia (2 yrs -(called Blanch). He and Rose lived in Pennsylvania until moving to York County about 1910. He worked in a rope factory on Franfurt Avenue in Philadelphia, PA. There was going to be a cement factory in York County and the company recruited Polish workers, i.e., Vincent came to work here. The plant (American Cememt Co) started out as a small firebrick producing plant near the Waterview Plantation. The gentleman financing the future plant went down on the Titanic. The Marl stone in the area was perfect for making brick.
