Nikola Kosić 1881
« on: Friday 07 July 17 21:09 BST (UK) »
Nikola Kosić was born sept 22 1881 in Viganj,Croatia.
I know he migrated to the USA. He lived in Louisiana and died of dysentery

I found a Nicholas Kossich who died in 1909 March 6 ,Orleans, Louisiana

I'm trying to find if this is the same Person. Hope someone can help. Thank you

I don't think so. His birthdate is 1881. But thank you.
I believe the Nicolas Kossich I found . Married a Mary Grecich and had 3 children. Frances 1906, Maria 1907, Walter 1909.
I just don't know if it's the correct Nicholas :(

Have you checked the 1900 & 1910 US census?

https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1325221?collectionNameFilter=false
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1727033?collectionNameFilter=false

Or the Ellis Island site

www.ellisisland.org

Where did you get his exact date of birth from?

Where did you get that info from?

I have checked Ellis island. I did find a Nicola Kosic arriving oct 15 1900 ,ship LaLorraine,departed from Havre
I have checked the 1900 census - nothing
1910 census Mary Cossich ( head) Frances and Walter
On the Louisiana bdm found birth Frances 1906. Parents Mary Grecich ,Nicholas Kosich   Orleans   1907 Maria Kosich ,1908 Nicholas Kosick
Death 1909 aged 27 Nicholas Kossich. Orleans

I know his exact birthdate found in Viganj church records.
He is the brother of my great grand father

I want to find out if the Nicholas Kossich who died in 1909 is the same as Nicolas Kosic born 1881 Viganj

Nicholas who died 1909 must have married Mary Grecich / Garcich in US as her mother was born there
Thank you for your help

On A*try he's listed as McOlo Kosic upon his arrival.

Can't make out any of the writing on the manifest.

Sorry!

Frances Garcich born 1868 would be Mary's mother .
Mary was born around 1890. I believe she would have married Nicolas Kossich between 1900 and 1906.  After his death in 1909 she married Peter buras.
If I could find Nicholas's marriage or death info it may give his parents name and hence confirm that I have the correct Nicholas.
I believe Mary's parents are John Garcich 1868-1930 and Frances Buras 1868- 1945
