I'm looking for any information about Metro Tadakowsky (d. 1933). He had 5 children with his first wife, who died in childbirth, and 5 children (Rita, Paul, Michael, John, and Elizabeth) with his second wife, Della Taronska (1882-1987). In the early 1900's he left Austria for Canada. When he had trouble finding regular employment, he moved his family to the United States in search of work. I know nothing of his ancestors, his first wife, or their children. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, Do you know when Metro TADAKOWSKY -went to the USA?
Have you searched Border Crossing Records etc

Metro may have applied for Citizenship -Records should be available from the State archive where he made application or from the National Archive in Washington.

Citizenship papers should show - date and place of birth,Names of Parents including maiden name of his mother.Date of Enry into USA. May show information re Passenger list -Port of Departure -Date of Departure - Date of Arrival -Port of Arrival [Canada] Name of passenger ship

Do you know if Metro arrived in Canada ?- with his wife and children? Did his children from the first marriage - also enter the USA?

Marriage Registratons for the children - should show the names of parents - including the maiden name of the mother.

Have you searched USA Census -
Depending on when Metro came to Canada - have you searched 1901, 1906, 1911, 1916 Census Canada?

Cheers, Stella
