I am searching for the family lines of John Ciaciuch from Pol/Ger. He was born sometime around 1862. He came to America sometime around 1881 and married a woman named Bridget.
Her and her parents had already migrated to America. Her last name was something like Glazyk/Glensick.
They were married in Grand Rapids. They later lived in the Dorr, Mi area. The Kalamazoo,Mi area. The Heallards,Mi ara and ended up in Wyandotte Wayne Co, Mi where he died in the 1940s.
He and Bridget had 5 children.
It's not what I know, It's what I don't know that is eating at me so bad.
Maybe I could be wrong but I just can't see a young man coming across the ocean by himself, with no family here.
I've checked census', war cards, etc. Ciaiuch's seemed to be in the Illinois , Michigan and Ohio states.
Could brothers have came together and split up in 2 or 3 directions to see where the better life was.?
I am in search of Ciaciuchs that came to America between 1880-1882,names of the ships that carried them.
I am looking for men who was born around late 1850-1870 maybe with name of 1 sibling.
Back then it was a big deal to nmae your children after family, So for instance Clara could be named for a aunt, mother or sister of a parent, Frank after his father,uncle or brother of a parent.
That could be how their are so many Anthonys, Franks,
Johns,Helens, Marys, Sarahs or elizabeths in one family tree.
I I'm hoping if we work together we might be able to help eachother
Thank You Arby
