Hi Shelly, Sorry for the late reply and thanks for the information you sent. I know the "Begheyn" name is in America spelled in so many variations. For me is your variant Bughiyne a brand new one; I'shall add it to the ones I already have. The Frank B. you mentioned is unknown to me, so I'll add your information to my archive (perhaps) for later use. Thanks again and best wishes.

Hello Ed, I'm sorry I don't have the specific answer you seek, but could this name also be spelled as BUGIYNE? I have a Frank L. BUGIYNE living as a boarder in the household of some of my relatives in the 1920 census. The head of household is George MONROE. Others in the household are an aunt Nora IMES and her daughter Bessie CRIST. In case it is of any interest to you, I'll transcribe Frank's info: 1920 census United States, Illinois, Henry County Wethersfield Township - Wethersfield Village Roll: T625_321 Page 1A, Enumeration district 148 Date: January 2, 1920 Bugiyne, Frank L., boarder, male, white, 24, single, can read and write, born Illinois, father born Belgium (mother tongue Belgian), mother born Illinois, can speak English, occupation: Laborer, Iron Factory. Good luck finding what you are looking for. Shelly > Hi listers, > > I am researching the Belgium family BEGHEIJN; some of them emigrated to > Iowa and Illinois about 1860-1880.
