approx 1900, Ona's surname could have a variety of spellings ie Norkus, Nerkewczute.

it looks very likely his grandson born 1962 in Middlesborough may be  alive - I can't name him as he is alive but look him up on www.freebmd.org.uk - he marries in 1984 in County Cleveland ( Durham area )
good luck  :)
added - just checked on Freebmd and there are 13 records for Brazukas........

Thank you, I would imagine the children I am looking for were born in Bellshill area from 1901 to 1910. Their surname could be anything but Brusokas is close.
I have a Joseph but none others.
Thanks and more help is needed. It appears Peter Brusokas (father) went back to US in 1910, he may have become a sailor and Ona then married a MR Savage.

Have you looked for the Ona/Savage marriage on scotlandspeople?

I found lots of Bruzgulus children, unfortunately they went on after 1910.

There are 8 Brusokas in Bellshill from 1901 to 1916, including an Ona .....

If you search for any 'Brus' living in Bellshill in 1911 census on scotlandspeople, you should be able to see 2 families.

Many Lithuanians in the Bellshill area returned home at the outbreak of the Great War to fight for the Tsar!
