Canada / Looking for more information on Picard/Ouellet
« on: Thursday 28 April 11 20:04 BST (UK)  »
Here is what I know so far but I can't seem to narrow down the Ouellet side..

* Jean Baptist Picard b. 1837 in Riviere du loup Canada baptised in 1837 in Notre Dame Quebec married Marie D'Egypte Ouellet on Apr 9, 1869.  He died in Amesbury, Massachusetts on 9/29/1920.

Jean Baptist Picard father Jean Baptist Destroismaisons di Picard b. 1805 m. Marie Lucie Larue.

* Marie D'Egypte Ouellet b. 8/18/1841 in Canada.  I'm looking for her father and mother. I think they are Zephirin Ouellet b. 1814 d.1890 and Marie D'Egypte Lucas b. 1816 d. 1861.

Was hoping someone could help me find or point me in the direction on where I might be able to find a marriage record or birth record for Marie Ouellet b 1841 and Marie Lucas b 1816 and marriage for both Zephirin and marie lucas.

Thank you again! Tammy

Europe / Looking for family from Austria?
« on: Tuesday 26 April 11 23:33 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

i'm hoping someone will be able to help me.. I'm not sure if I even have the correct spelling of the last names. These ancestors are related to the "Orkwis/Orkwiszewski/Orkwas/Oakwis" family that I'm still researching but it's difficult due to so many spelling variations.

So, here I am again wondering if I don't have the correct spelling. i've done searching on familysearch.org but I come up with possibilities but last name differences.

Here is what I know so far..

***Marjorie Scoda 1924-2005 (grandmother) married John Orkwis 1922-1989
****Raymond Scoda 1896-1953 (great grandfather) married Mary Brecelnik 1902-1999 both born in Pennsylvania

Looking for Raymond Scoda and Mary Brecelnik parents exact birth dates and their parents and are the last name spelling accurate
*****Raymond Scoda Oct 1856 in Austria (great great grandfather) married Emiley (?) May 1853 in Austria
*****Jakob Brecelnik abt 1869 Austria (great great grandfather) married Mary Shusnick abt 1875 Austria

Thank you for your help! Tammy

I found the birth record for one of my ancestors but I can't read it.It is the last entry on the left page. Jean Baptiste Emond. I think it says his father was Ferdinand Emond but I was hoping to find out the year and who his mother and father were.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Roscommon / Great Great Grandmother Delia Kelley
« on: Friday 22 April 11 00:31 BST (UK)  »
Here is my original post but I'm not 100% certain that this is the right Delia Kelley. She was born in 1879 in Ireland, parents were Kate Gatley and James Kelley.  Is Kate Gatley's father Jacobus? and is James Kelley father Patriik?  Thank you for your help!

Europe / Orkwis Family - Poland?
« on: Thursday 31 March 11 14:45 BST (UK)  »
I'm having a hard time finding my husbands family. I believe they are from Poland but I think the last name was altered when they immigrated.  Here is all I have so far:

* Frank Orkwis ( 1892- 1964) married to Mary Ann Lewandowski (1893 - )
lived I believe in Duryea, PA 

https://www.familysearch.org/search/recordDetails/show?uri=https://api.familysearch.org/records/pal:/MM9.1.r/QDVF-XMM/p1

I would love to know what the last name might have been and who his parents were.

Thank you,
Tammy
