>All my life they went to Serbian Orthodox Church but my dad's >> baptism record is from Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in Loraine Ohio. This is probably because at the time of his Baptism there was no Serbian Orthodox church in the area. When my great-grandparents were married, the Serbian Orthodox church had not yet been built so they were married in a Russian Orthodox church. Just thought I'd add that.

My Grandpa Slama arrived from Bohemia via Bremen on a North German Lloyd (or Norddeutscher Lloyd) Shipping Lines ship called the Karlsruhe. In searching for arrivals, I downloaded from the online searchable *Morton Allen Directory* at the Cimorelli website a list of all North German Lloyd arrivals to NYC for 1906, and the ship Trave arrived in NYC on March 23, 1906, June 3, 1906, and Oct 22, 1906. You can search for the 1907 arrival dates in NYC at this site: http://www.cimorelli.com/pie/nara/findmrt1.htm This site can connect you to other ways to search... the main page for the Cimorelli site is on Cyndi's list at http://www.CyndisList.com/ships.htm scroll down to SHIPS, PASSENGERS, AND CREW LISTS where you will see CIMO. That's the site. I was actually able, through a lot of websearching, to locate the German Maritime Museum (Deutsches Schiffahrtsmuseum), and through them have obtained a photograph of the Karlsruhe. They may very well have also a photo of the TRAVE, which you can purchase from them. Best of luck. Oh, BTW, my grandpa and his 2 relatives came through Baltimore, MD, rather than NYC. Gary D.

Josephdol is now Josipdol and lies in the Kapela region of Croatia, near Ogulin ; this area used to be inhabitated by the krayishnik Serbs, most of them expelled in 1995... Lukovia is not in a serbo-croatian form but that's all I could say. By the way Ksenija Sirota is a 100% genuine Krajisnik-Serb name with Sirota meaning Poor. So far I could appreciate Serbian last names this one is very beautiful. All in all your ancestors were Serbs from Croatia (as Nikola Tesla q.v.) and it means that further research in this country will be quite hard because many Serbian churches and records from past centuries have been burnt by Croatian "non-controled elements" Good Luck ;-)

If that is a Hungarian name, you should also post at http://www.rootsweb.com/~wghungar/text/k_l.html As you may already know, the Church of Latter Day Saints Family History Center has microfilmed many, many church records from that area. They may contain the information you need. Good luck in your search. Jim

I found my fathers baptism records. It was in Latin and then translated to English. My grandfathers English name was Mudrich. The Baptism record spells it Mudrycz. My question is the name Mudrycz Latian or Serbian? My Grandfather was born in Josephdol, Yugoslavia and my grandmother, Xenia Sirota, was born in Lukovia, Croatia. I can't find either of these locatioan. All my life they went to Serbian Orthodox Church but my dad's baptism record is from Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in Loraine Ohio. My aunt said my grandfather name was Mile Madric and they changed it to Mike Mudrich when he came to the US in 1920. This all very confusing. Do any of these surnames sound familiar to anyone? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Barb Smith

Looking for information on Karaffa surname. My grandfather, John (or Janos) Karaffa, was born in the Kocise or Presov area in about 1894. He apparently came to the U.S. in about 1910, settling first in Plattsburgh, New York and ending up in Weirton, West Virginia by 1919 (where he worked in steel mills). The only thing my mother can remember about his family is that he had a brother who went to Russia about the same time (1910). He was apparently trying to keep away from the Austria-Hungarian draft authorities. If anyone has come across this surname or has anything else to add, please e-mail me at: [email protected] Many Thanks!!

I am very interested in finding any information about the family Wuccen (Wytzen, Wissen) in Latvia (Riga, Bauska and Daugapils) before 1945? Also the Pawel , Pauffel family from Liepaja in Latvia, and Smolensk Gubernia in Russia. Any information would be appreciated. Magda Please reach me at [email protected]
