Hello there,

Are there any Svitlik / Světlík or Huszanik / Huszárik families in these images? (Czechoslovakia, 1921)

As I cannot read these images, it would be appreciated if someone could please search for the 2 surnames. Thanks in advance.

Family History Beginners Board / William Hartington (abt. 1790 - 1853)
« on: Thursday 14 December 23 06:26 GMT (UK)  »
I am currently in search of the parents of William Hartington, whose birth is estimated to be around 1790 in Fairfield, Lancashire (present-day Fairfield, Tameside). The earliest record of him is his marriage to Jane Edmondson on July 4th, 1819, in Bolton-le-Moors, Lancashire. They then had several children: John (1819:1819), John (1820-1823), William (1820), William (Edmondson) (1823), Peter (1825-1900), Joseph (1828-1904), Robert (1830-1835), Thomas (1834).

In the 1841 census, they were found in the parish of Bolton Le Moors, with William's age listed as 50 (thus, approximately born in 1791). Later, in the 1851 census in Radcliffe, his age was documented as 62 (suggesting a birth year around 1789). Notably, this census indicates his birthplace as Fairfield, which remains the sole mention of his birth location.

William Hartington passed away sometime in August 1853 and was interred on August 23, 1853, at St. Peter's Church in Bolton Le Moors.

The problem is that I cannot locate his baptismal record. Despite thorough searches through the Lancashire Online Parish Clerks, as well as familysearch, ancestry, and other platforms, I have been unable to uncover any relevant information.

Any assistance or guidance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help.

Europe / Waldau / Wykroty - Missing Parish Registers
« on: Friday 10 November 23 13:48 GMT (UK)  »
I am seeking the baptism record of Christian Traugott Mathes in the Waldau parish (now Wykroty) around 1813. His parents were Henryk and Anna Rozyna nee Neumann. Despite contacting multiple archives, I've learned that the parish registers are not present, and their whereabouts are unknown. Any assistance in uncovering the fate of these registers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Europe / Hübner - A clothmaking family
« on: Monday 11 September 23 08:03 BST (UK)  »
I am currently researching the clothmaking family Hübner. The earliest known ancestor was Johann Daniel Hübner who was a master clothmaker and burgher of Budsin (Budzyń). The only record that mentions him is his son's marriage record in 1783. His son was Gottfried Benjamin Hübner who was born around 1753. The first known mentions of him in records was in the church records of Rogasen around 1777 as a Godfather in a luthrean church. He married in 1783 to Anna Dorothea Priebe in Kornik. They had a daughter in Kornik until moving to Zaniemysl circa 1785. They had some more children. He wound up dieing at the age of 55 in 1809 in Zaniemysl. He also had a younger brother, Daniel Bernhardt Hübner. Not a lot is known about him except for being listed as being payed by this older brother Gottfried in the School Lists.

If someone could find more about who Johann Daniel Hübner was, that would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Europe / Viggiano / Perone
« on: Friday 04 August 23 04:23 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for the parents of Antonio Viggiano (born on June 13th, 1864/1863) & Lucia née Perrone (born on December 19th, 1863 1865), both natives of Postigilone, Italy. They married around 1893 in Postigilone, Italy.

I found this collection:

Edit:

https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/search-registry/?localita=Postiglione%20

This collection on familysearch.org are the records of Postigilone. I can’t read Italian Handwriting so could some please help find the records? If you don’t want to, tell me some advice.

Thanks in Advance.
