Europe / Lking for Frederick Peter Sepic (Croatia) and Elizabeth (Skibicki) Sepic Pol.
« on: Monday 01 January 18 17:54 GMT (UK)  »
Hi There

I've identified some family that came over in the late 1800s to NY from Russian-Poland (Elizabeth) and  Fiume, Austro-Hungary (Croatia). They are Frederic Peter Sepic and his wife, Elizabeth Sepic (nee Skibicki, Skibicky).

There are several census records showing they lived in NYC and New Haven. Also have passport application for both and a naturalization paper for Peter.

1. Want to know if any other users out there have info on these two and their families back in Poland and Croatia. Not many of the official US documents I've found list their hometowns or parents names.

2. They had my great grandmother stay with them at times, and she shows up as one of their children in a census but I am not sure that is correct. Perhaps Peter and Elizabeth are her parents! My great grandmother's name was Celia (Cecilia) Skibicky and she married Frank Standora (Standorf). Looking for info on Celia.

3. Celia's parents, Stefan (Stephan) Skibicky and Constance (maiden name may be Bogudska) are also 2 people I am trying to find out more about. I can find them on the census but again, nothing about their hometown and parents detail.

Thanks to all for looking and in advance for anything you can shed light on.

Cardiganshire / Thomas Jones, Bettws Bledrws, Maes-y-Felin Lookup
« on: Sunday 09 February 14 00:28 GMT (UK)  »
Just a beginner, I am in the US, trying to piece together the details of family members in Wales. I've found some information online and from other family members to help me build my tree. But I still have holes. I should note that I tried searching these forums before posting these questions. I hope that someone can help! Or at least help me understand the best way to find this information from the US.

Thomas A. Jones, b.1756 d.1819 (not sure if dates are correct); lived at Maes-y-Felin in parish of Bettws Bledrws, Lampeter, Cardiganshire. I think he stayed in Wales. Married to Elizabeth (dont know her maiden name) b.1969, d,1848 (not sure if these are correct).

His son, Thomas T. Jones, b.1804, d. 1887, He married Mary Edwards (from LLanddewi-Brefi, daughter of Thomas and Anne Edwards, Tanlan) on 17 Oct 1826 at the LLanddewi-Brefi Church. May have lived at Llwen Bobi, the game warden's house before leaving Wales. They immigrated to the US in 1838 and settled in Jackson Ohio.

My requests for help!:

1. I want to learn who the elder Thomas is....
2. When was he really born? Where? When did he die?
3. When was his wife, Elizabeth born? Where? When did she die?
4. What did he/they do at Maes-y-Felin Fach? What were his and her occupations?
5. Did they have more children other than Thomas T.? And, who were they?
6. Finally, who were their parents? (Thomas A., Elizabeth, Thomas Edwards and his wife Anne)

Many thanks! :)
