| Thank you Zlatica
and thank you for the links. I have been researching for 11 years my grandparent's surnames of Begnal-Blaschkow-Pereira Cardoso-Wilson. In the beginning the Internet was very limited and today I owe my success and appreciation to web sites as Rootsweb.com Ancestry.com FamilySearch.com (LDS)and RAOGK.org A volunteer at RAOGK recently provided me with gravestone pictures and death certificates of my Blaschkow/Blaszko & Follrich grandparents. Between my grandmothers Hungarian baptismal www.2computerguys.com/lineage/blaskow/Antoniabapt_lg.jpg US Federal census and a 1936 newspaper article, the road to finding out if my Blaschkow's & Follrich are Austrian, German, Hungarian or Polish has been confusing. Per my grandmothers baptismal, I probably should persue the church in which she was baptized. But I do not know what church this was. And the odd thing is my grandmother came to America in 1908 and her baptismal is dated 19 Aug 1911 as best I can tell. She has 6 siblings and I would think some or all were born in Szentgyorgy, Pozsony, Hun. From the newspaper article of 1936 (his age then was 75), says he was a Captain in the Austrian Guard, serving under Emperor Franz Josef. This would of been prior to 1890-95, I would think. For after Guards he had a wrought iron business in Vienna. The article says he came to America in 1904. My grandmother Antonia, was born 7 Jun 1901 in Hungary. I have had a lot of suggestions in where to begin, but with other tasks at hand and limitations, it has been difficult to persue. Appreciate the info and any advice, Doc | ||
