Looking for Joseph Kury
« on: Monday 09 August 10 12:17 BST (UK) »
Joseph kury emigrated from Baden in Germany , born in 1859, he married in 1889 in Islington , he was a watchmaker, he lived in Kingston on Thames until his early death aged 42 in 1902.  I have the census entries for 1991 and 1901 but cannot trace his entry to england or am unsure how to trace his german roots.  any suggestions?
I have a copy of his marriage cert. his father was deceased at the timeof the wedding and his name was also Joseph Kury,
Joseph married Romana Hummel and her father was David Hummel.

Do you have a copy of the marriage certificate ?  If 'yes', does it give his father's details ?

RIP 1949-10th January 2013

Best Wishes,  Nick.
