"EMIL MALINOWSKI — No history of this section would be complete without recording something of the achievements of Emil Malinowski, who for many years has made his home at Nanticoke, and its vicinity. He is a native of Poland. His parents, John and Catherine Malinowski, owned and operated a farm in Poland where they always made their home.
Emil Malinowski was born in Poland, December 6, 1860. He attended the village school situated near his father's farm until he was about twelve years of age when he started to work in a machine shop. He served his full term as an apprentice and thus learned the trade of a machinist. In 1883, at the age of twenty-three years, he emigrated from Poland to the United States and settled in Nanticoke, where he took a position with the Susquehanna Coal Company. He held the position until he became accustomed to the new country and its ways and then started, in a moderate way, a manufacturing enterprise where he made mining machinery and wagons. This was in 1885, five years after he had come to this country. He conducted this business until 1902, when he became interested in the Hanover Brewing Company at Danville, Pennsylvania. He was made president of this company and retained that office until 1911 when he disposed of his interests and built the Franklin Brewery in Hanover Township, near Wilkes-Barre. In his operation of this plant he was notably successful and enjoyed an extensive business. He is not only a successful business man, but is well known for his active interest in political, civic and charitable organizations. He served as councilman in Nanticoke for the term of 1901-02. And in all matters pertaining to civic improvement or public welfare, he has taken a keen interest. His fame in these matters is not limited to his residential locality, but he is known by his public activities throughout the entire State. He is a member of the Press Club of Wilkes-Barre and a director of the Wilkes-Barre Deposit & Savings Bank. He is trustee of the Nanticoke State Hospital and he is president of the Polish Union of America, a national organization. He is founder and president of the Miners' Trust Company of Nanticoke, one of the powerful financial institutions in the eastern part of the State of Pennsylvania.
In September, 1882, before leaving Poland, Emil Malinowski married Sofia Zybluvski. They have seven children and eight grandchildren. The children: 1. Mary, at home. 2. Blanche (Bronislawa), married T. A. Krzywicki, of Wilkes-Barre; children: Thaddus, Edward, John and Emil. 3. Helen, married Edward Wasilewski. 4. Sophia, married George Klingis, and they have one child, Emil. 5. John. 6. Frank, married Mary Schmidt; children: Emil, Anna and John. 7. Stanley."
