I wonder why 2 small children would be boarding without any other relatives. Tried finding more info on the Joseffy's since they are listed as Ellenor's cousin, but not finding anything on them other than that census. Found a couple family trees for the Tidey family, but that's not resulting in any hints as to why they had children boarders. I did see that 1944 arrival record. Chances are that is the same John as I found as a seaman in the Navy on the 1930 census. I haven't checked court records, not sure where I would go for that. I am planning to go see if I can track down a marriage record for them, but that might be tricky since I have no approximate date.

Author: jkshere Surnames: Yamrovich, Jamrowicz Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.researchresources.brick-20-walls/405/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I can't seem to find much information on my grandfather, John Yamrovich, and need some help. I have a World subscription and have also looked on any other site I can find, but keep coming up empty handed. I know he was born in Michigan abt 1913. On the 1930 census he was enlisted in the Navy (age 17) and stationed at a Naval base in VA. That census also listed his father as being from Austria and his mother from Pennsylvania. My grandmother, Evelyn Reynolds, was living around the Santa Monica and Venice areas of Los Angeles in the late 1930's so I know he shows up there sometime around that time. They may or may not have been legally married. She was listed as Mrs. Evelyn Yamrovich in a 1936 directory and as Mrs. Evelyn Yamrovich (wid of John) in 1938. Don't know why she said she was a widow in 1938 since my father, Charles, was born in 1939 and his brother James in 1940. Both were sons of John. I do remember my dad saying that his father wasn't around much when he was little, so I don't believe he was living with Evelyn since he was not listed in the directories. She later remarried and both boys took their stepdad's surname since they never really knew John. The only other Yamrovich's I have found are a family in Flint, MI. Stanley Yamrovich (who's name originally was Stanislaus Jamrowicz), his wife Josephine and their children; Anna Falkowski, Angeline Lesnak, Joseph, Alex, and Louis. It appears Joseph and Alex kept using the Jamrowicz spelling, while Louis used the Yamrovich spelling. I have a hunch that Louis may be John's father since Louis' middle name is John, but have been unable to find any documentation on him other than a draft record and SSDI stating he died in NJ. Josephine was living with Anna on the 1930 census, but that is the only time I've found any of this family on a census. They should have all been living in Flint for the 1910 census, but I've been unable to locate them. I would be eternally grateful if anyone could help me put a crack in my brick wall.

You can see this clearly, especially if you contrast it with GERMAN several rows up. Wikipedia has this tidbit re: Germania: "Several modern languages use the name "Germania" including Hebrew (??????), Italian (Germania), Bulgarian (????????), Maltese (Germanja), Greek (????????), Macedonian (?????????), Romanian (Germania), Russian (????????), Albanian (Gjermania), and Armenian (????????)." It's possible that Pauline's background is one of these IF she answered "Germania." Just a thought.... Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Sometimes girls as young as 8 were working in the local big house. Also look further a field, as sometimes the church found places some way away for places. Also look for "Davis", as I have found the two surnames interchangeable, depending who was giving and receiving the information.

She gave birth in 1888 to an illegitimate child Mary whilst living at Treskell Fach Llanfihangel the farm of Annie Davies. Esther was a farm worker. There is no father listed on Mary's birth certificate. Does anyone know of any large houses in the area where Esther may have been employed just prior to the birth because it is believed by the family that Mary's father was 'gentry'.
