Looking for any information on my family's relatives. I know they have relatives in Detroit but do not know anything of them. All I know is Julius Gruba was born in 3/11/1870 in Germany. His siblings were Julia, Frank, Walter and George Grubba. Julius became a naturilized citizen in Detroit. Married a Martha (Burkowski)? who died in child birth - son John Joseph Grubba born 5/5/1895. His son and my father is John Herber Grubba. Any information please let me know thanks.

I too am looking for family connections-----my Grandfather, Francis (Frank) Xavier Grubba, at age 30, married Helen Dulek in Amherst Junction, Wisconsin October 30, 1916. His mothers name was Alice Werkowski, and his one brother that I knew of was Julian Grubba, he and his wife May, lived in Oskosh, Wisconsin in the mid 50's. Not sure if this connects with your family or not.

forgot to mention that Frank formally changed his last name to Grubber,around about mid-1950s I believe and he died in like Sept. 1957 in Milwaukee, WI

Here is a family photo of my Grubba family from 1916. The father of this family is Albert. His father was John who came from Prussia. Grubba is a northern European name that deals with people who work in dirt or mining.
My grandfather is Peter Grubba in this photo. I know that he had a brother named Frank, but, I don't know which one he is in the photo. Perhaps you do.
Good luck and enjoy...
