Does any one know I can find a person?  The only thing I have is her first and maiden name "Clara Bolda", her and her mother "Susanna (Zywicki or Sawitzka)" are the only two I have nothing on except that Clara was born June 30, 1891, and that her mother died Sept 4, 1918. Susanna came from Germany and married Joseph Jacob Bolda in Detroit Nov 11, 1888.   I have checked the site "Seeking Michigan" and  Susanna has not been listed yet and Clara even might of married this I don't know. I tried entering the last name and nothing comes up.  Now I don't know where to go.   I would like to thank Sue for helping me find my other great aunt Theresa Bolda that I knew married and died young.  I just didn't have her husband's name. Now I have it Edward Smythe.   I would also like to thank anyone who can help me.   Pat

Hello Pat, A quick look shows a Joseph Bolda unmarried in Detroit in 1880 and married to Anna with a daughter Anna in 1900. Do you have access to this census information?

Pat Do you have access to Ancestry? There is a Susanna Sawitzka married to John Jacob Bolda with a child Agnes, born 1903, that I think?might be?your people. However there is no mention of Clara. It is listed under Velasco Family Tree, and has an email to contact the person who posted it. If this is the right family, that would give a couple more bits of info to follow up on.
