emily: karlevics, jakubowitz

My name is emily Karlevics, my grandmother was from Riga and her last name was karlowitz, changed to Karlevics after the war. She married G. Jakobowitz, but changed it back to Karlowitz during the war. I am looking for any branch of the family.
Please reply.....

I do hope you posted on Latvia's board as that is
where one RIGA is located.

The LDS-Mormons (Family History Center) website is listing
some church records from the city of Riga, Latvia.
Might be worth to check out the website for possible films which you can order and gather ancestral information.

Check Ellis Island website for any possible ancestors arriving thru that port.

Thank you very much for the advice about posting on the Latvian site; however, I am not very computer literate & I don't know how to go about doing this. Would I be able to get some instruction on this matter, it would be greatly appreciated.... thank you

Go to www.genforum.com click on Countries and then locate Latvia and click.

www.ancestry.com/share/main.htm?lfl.m in the window type Latva and click.

www.dogpile.com or
www.goodle.com are both good search engines.
