maybe my original surname of Rasimaucus is related? I have had a very hard time finding anything under that surname. I believe it might have been changed due to the fact that my Great-Grandfather-Jahn did not speak english and might have been mispelled by immigration. Let me know?

Thanks for your message. I haven't run into anything like that spelling in my research, but you're right that spellings can be various, so you need to experiment. How did your family pronounce the name? Sometimes I have found Sh sounds under sz. Don't know if that helps, but good luck in your searches.

Hi Michelle, Your dad would be about my generation, but I don't recall a James in the family. Who were his parents/grandparents? We lived in the Bridgeport area. Is any of this familiar? Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Nicholas, it's possible your grandpa Bruno was my 2nd cousin, as we're about the same age (b 1952-3) and played together as kids. Did his parents have a tavern on Halstead St in Chicago?/Susan
