Hi,

Have you checked the Surnames Interest Table or thought of adding your own surname ?

Scroll down to the bottom of (any RootsChat) page.

In the dark box, under "Your Tools" you will see "Surname Interests".

Click on that; then "Quick Search"; then select the initial letter ("?").

Scroll down to find ??? ; click on that and a list of ???? researchers will pop up.

Or add your own

Sandra  ;)

Thanks Sarah
I do have one of the photos from that tree but unable to contact tree owner as my subscription has expired and its too costly at the moment to renew
I was just putting the topic out on the off chance someone in New York may be related will have to join Anc and try the tree Owner
Thanks anyway ;D

Hi

Much of what we do is googled, so if we can work forward with the children, there is more chance of someone picking up on a name.
If you send me a personal message with your e-mail address then I will pass a message to the owner of the tree for you.

Meanwhile it looks like the son William Lee married Olga Ciccone - 2 June 1932 Bronx - Cert No :- 3387

Daughter Beatrice Lee married Harry Hennings 22 August 1926 - Bronx - cert No 5202

http://italiangen.org/records-search/brides.php

Couple had a daughter Beatrice Ann Hennings in 1931 who married Frank Savino.
This couple had a son James Savino in 15 December 1958 who passed away 14 October 2008.
Last Residence 81144 Monte Vista, Rio Grande, Colorado.

Here is the obituary for James - it mentions a surviving sister - using that information in conjunction with http://www.whitepages.com/ or similar sites would lead you to the sister.

John Richard had a son named William. William married Olga Ciccone and they had 3 daughters and a son. The children's names were Virginia, Janet, Caroline and Gary. I am Virginia's son. John Richard Lee was my great-grandfather. You were looking for relatives, how may I assist you? Chris

Hi Chris
Wow, I put that post on in 2015, noticed your posts appears you have just joined, well since 2015 I have had quite a bit of success with the family of John Richard Lee, By the way we are 3rd cousins (will confirm that as soon as I enter your name in my tree, don't know your fathers name)
John Richard was my 2nd great uncle, his brother was Walter my great grandfather
Its probably a bit early to send you a personal message as you only have 1 post so
Please bear with me whilst I go through what I have and whats missing and I will get back to you,
best regards
