The Polish Texans Website and Brian Marshall are searching for old pictures of Texan Musicians of Polish descent.
This is a “not for profit” collaboration who’s only intent is to recognize those musicians who were an integral part of important family functions such as weddings, funerals, etc. and who contributed entertainment to the society in which they lived. Any costs incurred, on your behalf, for copying pictures will not be reimbursed. Typically we are only talking a few bucks.
Many families have wedding pictures, as well as other social gatherings within the Polish community with musicians providing the entertainment and this is our attempt to gather them together in one place and pay our respects to those individuals. If you wish for your father, grandfather, great grandfather, Uncle, Aunt, or whomever to be recognized in this forum please share these old photograph’s with us.
Please note that we would really like for you to keep the originals in your family and only desire copies, HOWEVER, it is important that digital scans of originals be scanned at a minimum of 300 DPI (Dots per inch) in order to create a resolution that can be “cleaned” up or duplicated with clarity.
Typically, this can be done on a home scanner or at any outlet that processes film such as Walmart etc…
We thank you in advance for your participation in this endeavor and please know that all pictures will be treated with the utmost respect.
Pictures can be sent to us via an e-mail attachment to:
Or mailed to us at:

There is a rich tradition of Polish fiddling from Texas that had
declined into obscurity until a recent revitalization by performers like Brian Marshall.
