<p>My husband's family has been in Lithuania from some time in the mid 1800's. His great grandfather Ernestes was born in Bavaria in 1820?, and moved to Lithuania.

<p>Hi,</p>
<p></p>
<p> This is my first post to Genealogy Wise. I'm interested in tracing as much information as I can about my Grandparents, who came from Lithuania to Glasgow around 1905.</p>
<p>They very possibly came from Sunskai in the Suwalki Region, and birth dates are respectively listed as December 1882 and 1883.</p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p></p>
<p> This is my first post to Genealogy Wise. I'm interested in tracing as much information as I can about my Grandparents, who came from Lithuania to Glasgow around 1905.</p>
<p>They very possibly came from Sunskai in the Suwalki Region, and birth dates are respectively listed as December 1882 and 1883.</p>
<p>I've had the usual issues in trying to find a definitive surname spelling, with the most likely being Bujauckas/Buyauskas or Biuauskas for my Grandfather and Kaminskeine for my Grandmother ( I've been told that this spelling may indicate that she was previously a widow as otherwise her maiden surname would be Kaminskaite).</p>
<p>I'm not sure what else I can do from Scotland (Poor Relief-shown in the photographs/Valuation Rolls/1911 Census and Register of Births, Deaths and Marriages have been examined) and, pending assistance from a researcher in Lithuania, I'm also awaiting word from the Royal Highland Fusiliers Museum in Glasgow re my Grandfather's service and personal details. I though this may be worth a try as he chose to enlist in the Highland Light Infantry in 1917 as an alternative to forced repatriation to serve in the Army of the Provisional Government of Russia.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Strangely, at present I find myself teaching an outreach class in a school in Baltic Street, Glasgow, on a Friday morning: the same street that they lived in from arriving in Glasgow until they died.</p>
<p></p>
<p>If anyone has any suggestions re accessing other records such as likely port of entry or alien registration information or if they have a similar family background, I'd be delighted to hear from you.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Many thanks,</p>
<p></p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I've just joined this site. I have avoided serious exploration of my polish/russian/lithuanian ancestors because of language frustrations and location questions. However, I am now determined not to let obstacles stop me from making a good start!</p>
<p>My first question revolves around location. I think I understand about the Polish partition. I do not understand where records might be housed for my relatives. Their immigration documents listed them as Polish/Russian. The few documents I have suggest my grandmother came to the USA in 1907 from a place called Macele. A later church baptism record for her child listed Macelly par Rudnickiej. I believe I am seeing a Latin version of a Polish place name. I am focusing on Lithuania now since I believe she came from Maceliai, parish of Rudninkai, now in Lithuania. She was quite creative with her birthdate, but 1890 may be close. I think I need to start to understand where records might be of a Roman Catholic birth from 1890 in the Maceliai area, which I believe is just south of Vilnius. I started a few years ago at the LDS library in Salt Lake looking thru the few church records they had, for what I believe is the correct area. They did not have the timeframe I need and I looked at dates near 1800 which could include my grandmother's grandparents, but no way for me to make a connection.</p>
<p>Are there any old civil records from this part of present day Lithuania? Since they considered themselves ethnic Poles but were geographically Russian, I am not sure where records might be. I am hoping that the records stayed in one location and did not travel, that might put them in Lithuania.</p>
<p>No wonder I have avoided this family line!</p>
<p>Names grandmother mostly used Monika Jurgielevicz, occasionally used Suchacha </p>
<p> evidence of 2 siblings using Suchacka,(i) name on later immigration (possibly remarriage??)</p>
<p> grandfather Wicenty Bialkowski Staro Trotzski </p>
<p>If anyone is somewhat familiar with the Vilnius area, I am hoping you could point me in the right direction to start looking for Jurgielevicz's born around 1890 just south of Vilnius.</p>
<p>thank you. Ruthi</p>

<p>Just wondering if anyone out there has any relatives with the "Naujack" name from the southwest area of Lithuania.</p>
<p>After coming to America the name was changed to "Norick" or "Noack". I know that Joseph Naujack settled in Scranton, PA and had 7 children. I'm just trying to find out his parents names in Lithuania and whether or not he had any siblings.</p>
<p>It sounds like the archives in Vilnius are the way to go!</p>
