Hello.

At the moment I'm not working on my family tree, so I'm not sure if we have any links regarding Gay, but if I come across anything when I return to it, I'll be in touch.
Have a nice day,
AnneMarie

Hi John.

So far I've only researched the direct male Brear line, which have them all in Wragby, West Yorkshire. But as each male had many children, I'm sure we have spread! LOL

If I find any in your area, I'll let you know.

best wishes,

Hello and thank you for your help.

I feel so clueless but I don't know of their religion at all. I know that both my parents are Church Of England religion.

I was told that there is a possibility that Kittrick might have been McKittrick at one time and the Mc was dropped somewhere in the past, but how long ago, know one knows. I do know that all the Kittricks were Kittrick without the Mc since 1900. The spelling could also have changed over the years too. Kittrick, Kitterick, Ketterick, etc. Which makes it even harder to pinpoint my ancestors with accuracy. It's slowly sending me mad. :o)

Thanks again.!

Thanks Inicky.

I have no idea if they are my family because all I have is Mary Kittrick and not her parents.

I'll go look at Family search and see what I can find. I just can't link Mary to her parents or anyone really. very frustrating.

Thanks,

Europe / Re: Kittrick - returning to England

Hi Pat.

I think they lived in America from 1910 to about 1920s. My grandmother Mary was back in Wakefield by 1930 for she married and had my dad and his brothers in the 30s before dying in 1941. My dad has very little memory of his mum, Mary, or the Kittrick family. Some of Mary's siblings stayed in the USA, we believe Kentucky, but the parents returned to Wakefield. I have no names for the parents, but was told they might have been Irish orginally.
My grandfather remarried and so my dad was raised by his stepmum and his real mum Mary Kittrick was rarely mention and no records of her are in the family. A distant cousin wrote and told me that Mary had siblings, Katherine, Thomas, Patrick, Edward and Frances. No knows the parents names.

It is such a stumbling block, full of half truths and vague stories.

Thanks so much,
Anne.~

Europe / Kittrick - returning to England
« on: Tuesday 01 July 08 23:11 BST (UK)  »
Are there records for passenger ships returning to England in the 1920s from the USA?

I'm looking for the Kittricks, who left England (1907) and went to live in America but then returned.

Thanks!

Hello David.

Thank you for letting me know about the surname list. I'll do that.

Europe / Poland - Babis and Matuszcak
« on: Tuesday 01 July 08 05:21 BST (UK)  »
Hi.

I'm helping my sister trace her husband's family. His paternal line is Babis from Poland. The story is rather tragic.

Franciszek Babis (b 1895) married Marisha Matuszcak (b 1907)
Their children were born in Janwarowa, near Baranowiceze East Poland (now Belarus)
When the second World War broke out, the Russian invaded the area and Franciszek and his family were sent to work in camps near Siberia. Two sons died at the camps. Their youngest son Tadeuzs was taken in by a Russian family, only he was reclaimed when the family went on the run in about 1942 when germany was sweeping the area.
While on a train journey, the eldest son and father went missing at a station stop. The mother carried on with the younger children. The father or eldest son was never heard from again. (we don't know if they survived or died)

Marisha journeyed through Pakistan and onto India and her youngest daughter Teresa died there in Valivader, Kolhopur, 1946.
The Red Cross helped them sail to England in 1947 and they settled there. We know one older daughter emigrated to America and the youngest son Tadeuzs emigrated to Australia after marrying in Dewsbury, Yorkshire. 

Any help would be much appreciated as we've come to a halt on the research.
