Thank you. My grandmother and her mothe were both born in Dolatcz. I think Bikos might have come from St. Rupert. I know they were Catholic, but that's about all I know. I appreciate your help.

Hi

The correct spelling is DOLJ- the county DOLJ.
The Biko name is very rare name. I suggest is Jewish not Roamian. I looked up the phone book www.paginialbe.ro and there are no families with this last name.

BIKO, ENGLER from Dolatz

2006-08-19 23:47:53Z

I'm looking for any information on the surnames BIKO & ENGLER from Dolatz, Romania. My great grandparents were Noklos ENGLER (Oct. 1844-7 Nov. 1920) & Katlina BIKO (1 Jan. 1848-16 Feb. 1923). Both were from Dolatz. They came to the USA in 1906 and died in Bangor, Van Buren CO, MI. Any information on the parents and siblings of either or both of them would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Karen,
In the Hungarian grammar last name goes first. The Hung. phone directory lists 145 Vati.
I checked the Romanian Whitepages, Sibiu District for Vati, one Maria Vatiu listed in Sibiu, but I'm not sure if that's the same name. Nothing in Laslea= (Szaszszentlaszlo from Janos and Maria E.I. arrival record).
Also no Vati in Mures District (Laslau Mic at one time also was known as Szaszszentlaszlo)
Joseph

Hello! This is Karen, the person sho is researching the last name of Vati in Romania. All of my relatives have the last name VATI, there is no one with the first name of Vati, unless at one time they switched. I am not sure. The names I have so far are Janos (John) Vati and Maria Vati. Janos was 10 months old he is the son of Maria, my grandmother. Her place of residence wasSzaszotlaszlo,Hungary, she came to the USA on August 28th 1912, from the port of Antwerp, Belgium. She was 18 years old, apparently her husband had already came to the USA and then sent for her and their 10 month old son.

Keep in touch.

Hi

This means that your family was either bulgarian, because Calafat is exactly on the border- my family was born there.
However, the way it was spelled is wrong. I think they were trying to find a way to make it easier to be pronunced in English.
I believe it is Sergiev or Serghiev.
People were migrating back and forth on the DAnube river at that time because of the war in Balcans between Bugaria and Romania in 1916-1918.
So, probably your family is Bulgarian at origin.
Good Luck!

Hi

All I can tell you is the the Rudareanu is a commun name in Oltenia- Dolj. I was born there and the village is RAST.

All this people left Romania because of the war and because of the creation of Big Romanai on dec. 1, 1918. Most likely other relatives were not able to join them later on here.
Romania's economical situation startd to be better after 1920 and peoplae were not motivated to leave anymore.
Rudar means in Oltenia Gypsy.
Good luck

Father's Ancestry

momrudin — 2002-02-05 03:19:51Z

Looking for Marin Rudareanu, came to US around 1916-1918and was in the lst World War. Lived in Cleveland, Ohio and had 4 children. They went by the name of Rudin. Marin had a nephew by the name of Marin Rudareanu. Marin parents names were Ioan and Mariann (Annie) that is all that I know. Maybe some of the family went to the US after but no one knows. I found Rudareanu's in US but are not related. If someone knows this family please e-mail me. I think there were some in Dolj(Rost or Rast) this is all I have to go by. Thank you.

Looking for any information relating to these family surnames.The family was in Calafat, Romania in 1927. I believe that the name was changed over time, I have a birth certificate with the surname spelled as Siergiejiew, then changes later to the Sergheiew spelling, now is spelled Sergeew.
