Biography/History

Jacob Krzyzanowski (1871-1933) and Sophia Olszewski (1879-1954) met in 1892 when the Olszewski family moved to Knutnow, Poland. Sophia's father Thomas Olszewski (1855-1898) was an artist who designed interiors for churches, and the family moved frequently as his projects changed. Jacob was a soldier in the Russian Army, but wished to emigrate to America due to the political unrest in the region. Jacob and Sophia were married in May 1893, and Jacob immediately set out for Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Sophia joined him about a year later, and they eventually settled on a farm near Lyndon Station, Wisconsin. Jacob and Sophia had eight children, with seven reaching adulthood: Estelle Myra (b. 1895), Joseph (1897-1976), Muriel (1899-1992), Maryanna (1901-1901), Anthony Benjamin (1904-1976), Helene (1906-1989), Thaddeus (1911-1975), and Jerome (1913-2003). Of these, Anthony Benjamin, Helene, and Jerome used the anglicized “Crossler” as a surname instead of Krzyzanowski.

In 1917, Estelle married Reinhardt Schulze (1893-1955) of Reedsburg, Wisconsin in Waukegan, Illinois. Reinhardt was drafted in 1918. Later that year he became ill and was mustered out of the Army. In 1920, the couple's only daughter, Dorothea Schulze, was born. The marriage was troubled, and Reinhardt left Estelle in 1922. Estelle attempted to collect alimony and child support during their separation, but was unsuccessful, at least until the divorce was formally granted in 1925. As a single parent, Estelle struggled to make ends meet; as a result she sent Dorothea to stay with her grandparents in Lyndon Station for some time. Estelle was employed in the early 1920s at a dry goods store, the Boston Store, and Schuster's Beauty Shop. By the end of the decade, Estelle had opened her own beauty shop, the Estelle Schulze Beaute [sic] Studio. Over the next several decades, Estelle owned and managed several other beauty shops in the Milwaukee area. Reinhardt went on to study optometry in Chicago. The couple ultimately remarried several days before Reinhardt's death in 1955.

The Jacob Krzyzanowski family farmed the property near Lyndon Station until 1924, when they moved to Milwaukee. They lived in a rented house with Estelle and Dorothea for a short time before moving to their own house on 11th Street. It was in this house that a tragic event struck the family. According to the Milwaukee Sentinel, on April 25, 1933, Jacob stabbed Sophia in the abdomen while she was sleeping, and then took his own life with a shotgun. Dorothea Schulze was the only other family member home at the time, and she was unharmed. Two neighbors came to Sophia's aid, as they heard her scream and break a window. Sophia recovered from the incident, and later married Stefan Smukalla in 1943. They were divorced in 1949 but remarried in 1951.

Dorothea Schulze attended St. Mary's Academy in Milwaukee, graduating in 1938. She briefly attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison before transferring to Gradwohl School of Laboratory Technique in St. Louis, where she trained to become a medical technician. She married Victor Wong in 1956, a doctor of Norwegian descent who grew up in Platteville. Victor received his undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and his M.D. from the University of Louisville in 1938. They lived in Milwaukee for most of their married life. See the following family chart for relationships between family members.

Olszewski/Krzyzanowski Family Chart

The following chart is not intended to be a complete history of the Olszewski or Krzyzanowski families, but rather a guide to understanding family relationships among the people documented within this collection. Additional genealogical information on materials such as family group sheets, sketches, and charts can be found in the collection. Although most of the family members in this chart are represented in the collection in one form or another, bold lettering indicates the individuals who have more substantial materials associated with them in the collection.

Scope and Content Note

The Krzyzanowski family papers are arranged in three series: CORRESPONDENCE, BUSINESS AND PERSONAL PAPERS, and VISUAL MATERIALS. The collection had no discernible original order, aside from the SCRAPBOOKS, which were kept intact as much as possible.

The CORRESPONDENCE series contains mostly outgoing correspondence from various family members, and is arranged by recipient. The majority of this series consists of letters written to Estelle Krzyzanowski Schulze from family members and friends and these are therefore presented first. Included in Estelle Krzyzanowski Schulze's letters are love letters from her husband Reinhardt written while he was serving as a soldier in 1918, as well as letters from several long-time male companions. There are numerous letters from her daughter, Dorothea Schulze Wong, while she was living with her grandparents, while traveling, and while attending school and working in other states. Also of interest is the very thorough run of letters from Estelle's sister-in-law Eleanore Krzyzanowski, which provide insights into a working class woman's day-to-day life in the 1930s. Most of these letters are in English, but contain some Polish material. Correspondence to other family members is less plentiful, but provides extra insight on relationships covered in Estelle's letters. Of particular interest are the letters from various relatives from Poland, as they chronicle the hardships endured by the Polish during World War II.

The BUSINESS AND PERSONAL PAPERS series consists of Estelle's business records, her diary and transcription, certificates, ephemera, career materials, a yearbook, scattered news clippings, and various personal papers. Estelle's business records include both records relating to the various beauty shops that she owned and managed, as well as records detailing the “trading” she did in real estate. Many of the records provide insight on the day-to-day operations of a beauty shop at the time, including licensure, personal injury issues, and wage regulations for women. Complementing these records are Julius Balcerzak's barber training manuals and associated materials. Also included is Estelle's beautician's case including various realia used in her profession. Estelle's diary chronicles her separation and divorce from Reinhardt Schulze from 1920 through 1925, her struggle to receive financial support from him, and his estrangement from his daughter Dorothea. Other personal papers illustrate Reinhardt Schulze's life as a soldier and his later activities, and Dorothea Schulze Wong and her husband Victor Wong's careers in the medical field. Also of note are the few items documenting Benjamin (Krzyzanowski) Crossler's hike to California from Wisconsin in 1926.

The VISUAL MATERIALS series is divided into four sub-series: Family Scrapbooks, Crayon Portraits and Drawings, Photographs, and Negatives. The Family Scrapbook sub-series consists of five distinct scrapbooks that were compiled by donors Virginia Holtz and Lorie Nichols. Each scrapbook documents a person or family group, and each contains an assortment of materials: photographs, certificates, letters, advertising materials, business cards, calendars, news clippings, awards, ephemera, memorabilia, genealogical sheets, and official records. Family relationships are captured well, as are special events (weddings, funerals, graduations, etc.). Estelle Krzyzanowski Schulze's career scrapbook provides a vivid glimpse into working class beauty shops and beauty culture in general for the 1920s-1950s. Coverage is extensive and materials are presented chronologically. It is important to note that some extended family members are only documented in this part of the collection.

The scrapbooks were initially compiled in binders; these had to be dismantled for preservation purposes. The materials were separated, placed in folders and are in original order. Additionally, the scrapbooks were photocopied in their entirety before they were disassembled, and this master copy remains in the boxes, preceding the scrapbook materials, to serve as a reference tool.

The Crayon Portraits and Drawings sub-series includes crayon portraits of Teofila Olszewski, Thomas Olszewski, and Sophia Olszewski Krzyzanowski and a charcoal drawing reported to be Dorothea Schulze Wong.

The Photographs sub-series consists of a relatively small selection of images mostly of Estelle Krzyzanowski Schulze and various activities she participated in. There are a handful of general family photographs, as well as several oversized portraits of family members. The photographs in this series are not comprehensive, as the collection's strongest photograph component resides within the contents of the Family Scrapbooks.

The Negatives sub-series documents four subject areas: family, travel, recreation, and special events. A majority of the negatives document activities Estelle Krzyzanowski Schulze was involved in (especially American Legion events and parades), although there are a large number of images relating to Dorothea Schulze Wong as well. The images related to traveling mostly chronicle Estelle's travels in California, when she would visit her brother Benjamin. Recreation imagery includes shots of picnics, horseback riding, fishing, lounging by the waterfront, and a few of the Colsac Car Ferry in Merrimac. Some of the images from special events were taken by Muriel Krzyzanowski Balcerzak at various dog shows.
