Biographical notes:

Rev. Jósef Lebiedzik Zawistowski (1884-1967) was born in the Polish area of Upper Silesia, and came to the United States in 1914 to become a priest of the Polish National Catholic Church. Rev. Zawistowski served parishes from Duluth, Minnesota, to Schenectady, New York, and was one of the most prominent leaders of the P.N.C.C. During World Wars I and II, Zawistkowski was active in relief efforts. He was also instrumental in stabilizing many parishes to which he was assigned.
