Hello, I am new to the list. From the archives I can see this list isn't to busy. I sure hope that there is someone out there that can help me. I have been on the hunt for my FRITCH line who came into the US again from Canada around 1867. Elusive creatures these Fritch's. I have found Henry A. FRITCH, my ggrandfathers brother, in San Luis Obispo County in the 1910 census living with a niece I know nothing about. I know very little about Henry A. FRITCH so am excited to find a family relation to trace with him. In the 1910 census he is living with a Ruth NELSON, age 33 and born in Calif., a teacher at the public school, and single living on Archer Street? Marshal and Keach are the next streets listed on the page. This is my Henry's niece according to the census....sure hope it isn't one of those "I am the UNCLE" type of things as he is 35 yrs. older than she! They also have a boarder named Lee HOLMEN from Texas. Please, can anyone tell me anything about this Ruth NELSON or Henry A. FRITCH? If she was a teacher there must be something about her somewhere! The person above them on the census is also from C! anada, a Thomas L. REED, age 56. Could there be a connection there? Any help would be appreciated. I am desperately trying to find their parents, My grandfathers naturalization papers and all where destroyed by floods in Santa Cruz County. I am hoping something of the siblings will give me a clue. I know Henry's mom's name is Jane FRITCH Hess and they come from New Brunswick, Canada. That's about it except it says he was naturalized so maybe papers in your county? pg. of 1910 info for San Luis Obispo from soundex: 5 42 12B ward 4 Thank you all for reading my epic tale from this county. I do so hope that it bares fruit. Kathy Busby
