Len's father, Bruno Paul Garon (known as Paul), was the son of a Polish policeman who lived on the border of Germany and Poland. This man was due to testify in court on the same day that his ship was to sail for America. His tickets were already paid for, and in those days you didn't get a refund if you missed the ship. He chose not to miss the ship, and took the risk of arrest for not appearing in court. In order to cover his tracks, he changed his real name, which remains unknown to this day, to GAWRONSKI (pronounced gav-ron-ski), which was later modified to GARON. It is believed he entered the United States around 1895, and that he was sponsored by a Mr. Dahlman and a Miss Werner. (We are not sure what relationship these people had to the family; as a child Len thought they were relatives, but learned later that they were not blood related.) Family legend has it that the original name began with "VON", which would imply a German background, as does the fact that his sponsors also had German names; this would not be too surprising as people living on the border of one country often have bloodlines from the neighboring country.
Len's mother, Mary RANKIN, was Polish, and her family name was originally RANKAU.
