She and her sisters helped run the household with their father. Some time after the war, Anna met her husband, Antoni Zietkiewicz through her older brother, Josef. The two were married in a civil ceremony in Cieplice and shortly thereafter she emigrated with her new husband to Newark, New York where they were married at St. Michael church in June of 1960.
