Hi... My maiden name is Globis. My grandparents were all from Lithuania. My paternal grandfather's name was Charles Globis and separated from my Dad's mother, Victoria and went to Chicago. We don't know much else about him after that. Any information would be appreciated.

Paula, The information I have is Florence Victoria Globis who lived in North Chicago, Illinois. Florence's parents are James Globis and Antonette Marie (maiden surname?) Florence was born Aug. 8, 1917. She had married Pete George Domikaitus also Lithuanian. Is there a family line here? If so, let me know. Thanks and good luck.

Hi, My grandmother's name was Victoria Globis but she was from Scranton, PA. She died in 1972 or thereabouts. She was married to Charles Globis. They were both Lithuanian. Don't know of any connection...but my grandfather, Charles left for Chicago and we don't know if he started another family after that. Thanks!

Re: Globis, Florence Victoria
Mildred: I am searching for an obituary for an Antoinette Globis, born in Lithuania c 1885. She died as a result of a bus or automobile accident in Waukegan, Lake County, Illinois in 1963. She was the younger sister of my great grandfather Frank. She had sisters named Frances Mikuidas/Savisky and Helen Savisky. I too am searching for this family tree as she was my great-aunt and her maiden name was Martisius or Martissius. Ric ricmartis@GRICS.net

Re: Globis, Florence Victoria
Richard, It sounds like the same person and family line I am inquirying of. I don't know anything of the Globis family or Martinisius. I found Florence Victoria Globis was married to Peter George Domikaitus. However, I do have a copy of Florence's social security application. Her ss# is 327-03-6894. I could send you a copy if you would like it. Let me know how to send it. I could not make out her mother's madian name of Martisius on my copy, so thank you for the information. I don't know where Antonette is buried. But, I show Victoria as living in North Chicago at the time of applying for a SS#. That was 1937 and she was 19 years old. Working at Sager Lock Works - Division of The Yale & Towne Mfg. Co. in North Chicago. Her birthday was Aug. 8, 1917 and she was born Richr------, Illinois? I can't make it out, can you help? It maybe near North Chicago.

Hi: My name is Ric Martis, and the Globis line that you mention lived in Waukegan, Il. Antoinette's maiden name was Martis[actually Martissius .. or something close] She immigrated to the USA when she was 16 years. She was the youngest sister of my GGrandfather, Frank. Also Francis, Anton, Helen/Ellen all came to USA from Lithuania, but I do not know which part exactly. I have pictures of Antoinette and myself with the Domakaitis [sp?] family right before she was killed. Do you have any info as to where in Lithuania she came from?

Re: Globis, Florence Victoria
Thanks for your reply. Flo was born in the USA, probably in Waukegan or Round Lake, Illinois. Antoinette was born in Lithuania and died in Waukegan as she was struck by an automobile/bus. That was in 1962, I think. I have her death certificate if you want a copy. Ric

Re: Globis, Florence Victoria
Something you wrote in your note about where Flo [Victoria]was born .. "Richn/////...." prompted me to go to my office to get the notes of the initial family interview of the "Martis clan". The initial person I spoke with was Florence Victoria aka Flo and this would be in 1982 or 1983. She suggested also I speak with her sister Helen, as well as Helen was older and she might remember more data. During the interview, I took notes and she said that the [James] Globis family was very close to the "Mikiutas" [spelling ???] family as Antoinette's sister Helen married Jerome aka Lou Miuitas at St. George's Church [1903??]. Flo mentioned that "they", referring to the Mikuitas family, had a farm near Round Lake or Gray's Lake in Northern llinois. ... I also penciled in another name ... Richmond .. possibly a town. Well, I just checked a map of Northern Illinois and Richmond, Illinois is very close by Round Lake and Gray's Lake. This may be where Flo [Florence Victoria] was born, possibly in Richmond, Illinois? I can ask my uncle as he and Flo and Pete's [Globis] daughter were close in age and my uncle lived in Waukeegan as a young man ... maybe he knows something else. I think that Flo and Pete had but one daughter and I met her when I was 5 or 6? I think her name was Carol and she would have been in her late teens, then as I remember that she was in college when I met her. That is as much as I remember right now. I also ran across a a 1930 census of ... I think it was Cicero and I remember that one of the Globis girl's [as a young girl] was innumerated with one of the Mikuitas family. This would be the girl's; mother's; sister, Helen [Martis] Mikuitis. I will check it and get back to you with this information in a couple of days. Hope this helps. Ric ricmartis@GRICS.net

Re: Globis, Florence Victoria
Ric, thanks for all the information. I had none of it! I have found Florence Victoria (Globis) born August 8, 1917 and died May, 1986. She married Peter George Domikaitus, Jr. Peter is related to my husbands family, but, it is not clear how. As there may just a lost of memory of those who do know. Any help would be appreciated on this family. Thank you.
