I am researching my grandfather's family. He came to Canada from Glogon in the Banat of Hungary in 1912, with his wife. My grandmother had other family here, but my grandfather, Franz Liebzeit, left behind a brother Peter, and two sisters, Francisca, and Maria Magdalena.
I am trying to find information on Francisca, who was born July 16, 1881 in Glogon, which was then the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, now Glogonj in Serbia. She married Mor Grgic, or Gergic, on Feb. 6, 1906, in a nearby town called Startschowa, now Starcevo, Serbia.
From a descendant of the other sister, who lives in Germany now, Mor Grgic and wife Francisca Liebzeit adopted 10 children.
Francisca Grgic (Gergic), born Liebzeit, died April 21, 1972 - ironically only a few months after my grandfather, her younger brother Franz (Frank) Liebzeit, died in Winnipeg, Canada. He died Dec. 12, 1971.
We never found any information from them, my grandparents spoke German, learned very little English, but we didn't know German.
I'm trying to find all my Liebzeit relatives, and their families, and I don't even know where they live now. If anyone has heard of these people, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks,
Jane
