Talk:Stanislaus Kostka

message: Article states that his mother was Małgorzata (Margaret) de Drobniy Kryska. The name (as are others in the curent article) were an obvious post-accident of translations/latinizations/misspelings, so I took a turn at recreating them. I'd decipher Margaret de Drobniy Kryska as Małgorzata Kryska from Drobnin (it was indeed the seat of Kryski family). She is also reffered to in some Polish sources as Małgorzata z Kryskich (z Drobnina).
Search for more info on Jan Kostka reveals there was more then one. Note that his father Jan Kostka was kasztelan zakroczymski from 1564, and not kasztelan gdański (c.1529-1581) currently at Jan Kostka, married to Jadwiga Przerembska (his other wife name was Zofia Odrowąż) and father of another Stanisław Kostka (Stanisław is Polish for Stanislaus). This can get confusing, I know. Polish article which sheds some light on this is here. Thus Jan Kostka should become a disambig - I'll go ahead and make it so.
As for chancellor Felix Kryski (Felix is Polish Feliks) there was chancellor (kanclerz) Szczęsny Kryski (Polish surnames change based on gender, so masculine Kryski is feminine Kryska). It is very likely that the full name of this individual was Feliks Szczęsny Kryski (Feliks Szczęsny was a fairly common first/second name combination in those times), and there was indeed was indeed the kanclerz wielki koronny (Great Crown Chancellor), reffered to in various sources as either F/FS/S Kostka, so no matter what name combinations are used, he is the one and same person. Some more info about him I googled out : referendarz wielki koronny; Po śmierci A. Balińskiego nominowany na jego część starostwa 1603 – 1606 cesja na rzecz P. Grabskiego, podkanclerzy koronny, kanclerz wielki koronny, wcześniej starosta kruszwicki; z nominacji 1613 – 1617 cesja na następcę, father of Wojciech Kryski.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 00:02, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

What other information do you have regarding those who funded and built the church.
Eager to add historic information to our bleak files,

message: Source please for feast on Aug 15? Yes he died that day, but that doesn't mean it was ever celebrated as his feast.  Old calendars have him on Nov. 13. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 16:42, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

message: My wife and I were married in St. Stanislaus Kostka Church in Toledo, Ohio in 1964 by Rev. Aloysius Sobczak.  Over the passage of time the Polish ethnic neighborhood it was located in gradually changed; parishoners passed away or moved to a safer area, which prompted Bishop Leonard Blair to close the parish along with another one three blocks away, St. Anthony of Padua. St. Stanislaus was eventually sold and is now 'The Deliverance House of God' St. Anthony's is still owned by the diocese but there is no priest to say mass. The Gothic style church is still standing and has a tower 265 feet high. The school which had ornate architectural detailing was razed a few years ago. The rectory is still standing and is used to teach poor African-American children how to read and write.
