Frank Stanislaus Bruski

Son of Thomas and Theresa. Brother of Mary, Catherine, Lucy, Leonard, and Rosa/Sister Marianna. Husband of Julia Gromowski, though later separated due to his drinking problem. In Feb 1915, he turned himself in after escaping from the Wilmar Inebriate Farm, stating that he was tired and now wanted to go back and be cured. However, the cure didn't last, as a news article from Mar 12, 1929 reports that Frank “Skinny” Bruski was arrested for intoxication. Father of Johanna, Gertrude, Josephine, and Harry. Lived at Winona County Home/Farm since 1930. Died after a week of illness from a stroke at Winona General Hospital.
