Son of John Klawikowski (or Klawikofski) & Juliana "Julia" née Okrie.
Stepson of Charles Jordan whose surname he adopted.

Frank immigrated to the US as an infant and his parents soon after had at least two more children in Chicago. (Martha née Klawikofski and Anna née Klawikofski are known but August Jordan and Julius Jordan may also have been born Klawikofski- their relationship to Frank is not clear). The fate of his father is not known.

His mother remarried to Carel "Charles" Jordan on November 12th, 1888 in Chicago, a widower with one (known) child: August Jordan (1883-1964, not buried here). At least four children were born to the couple: Lena, Mary, Elizabeth and Sophie. The Julius Jordan buried in this lot (no death record found) is either his full brother (son of John Klawikowski & Julia Okrie) OR his stepbrother (son of Charles Jordan & his first wife).

Never married, Frank lived with the family of his sister Anna and her husband Joseph Miller (born Joseph Grolewski). His sister Martha married John Grolewski (who in 1910 had still kept his surname but who likely changed it also).
