Hi, I am researching my grandfather's family. My grandfather (Stephen) was born in Congo, Ohio (Monroe township, Perry County) in May 1908. I have not found a birth record and don't know if he would be listed under his mother's maiden name (Elizabeth LOVASZ), the biological father's name (Joseph SOLTESZ) or his mother's (second?) husband (Steve MATISZ) whom she married three months after my grandfather's birth. Elizabeth died in Congo in 1909 but I'm not sure where she is buried. I expected to find a record of her funeral mass at St. Bernard's Church, where my grandfather was baptised a year earlier, but it is not listed. With the help of SKS, I *think* we found her death listed in Perry County's death records under the name Lizzio Mytyes (an awkward spelling for Matisz?) Finally, an Alexander HORVAT was listed as my grandfather's godfather, so I assume he was living in Perry County around 1908 as well, though I know nothing about that line. Thanx, Sharon _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
