Wordless Wednesday: June is Wedding Month at Heritage Zen
My grandparents, Adolf Szerejko and Antonina Bulak. Married 11 Feb 1920 at Our Lady of Czestochowa, also known as St. Mary's, in Worcester, Massachusetts. My grandmother and her mother Ewa (Kowalewska) Bulak, both seamstresses, made the dress. The flowers are freesias, one of my grandmother's favorite flowers.
Yes, they do have a wonderful fragrance. That's one of the things my grandmother loved about them. Whenever I smell freesias I think of her. Happy memories...
A long-time librarian, I am mostly of Polish, Acadian, and French-Canadian descent. I have started this blog to share and acquire genealogical knowledge, achieve inner peace, and perhaps realize my ultimate quest, to find two ancestors with the same surname who actually spelled their surnames exactly the same way...

They look so elegant. And your grandmother had wonderful taste in flowers - freesias have such a beautiful fragrance.
