According to the Lithuanian naming system, my great grandma's name would have actually been Mockeviciute, and her mother, Mockeviciutiene, with a small variation in spelling being possible. > > > Also, my great grandmother had the measles when she arrived, and was quarantined, but her mother apparently was not. They were bound for Brooklyn, which is where they stayed. I am eager to know who they went to be with, as I have a genetic NPE that I'm trying to solve, and the cousins involved know nothing about Lithuania, or my family. I am hoping to be able to find more family members here that might be the potential birth father of these cousins. > > > Thanks, > > Frances > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > Hi Frances! I think I’ve found her. I sent you an email. Please contact me off list. Cheers, Susan
