Marie: Glen Robbins is in Belmont County. I live in Belmont County. In fact the town is about 10 -12 miles from where I live. You said the Aiella, Pa....could you mean Avella, Pa? This is a small town just across the WV state line about I would guess 10 miles away from the State Line. It is probably a 1/2 drive from my home. If the family is from Avella PA as opposed to Aiella, PA then they are from Washington County PA. Which is about 35 - 40 miles SW of Pittsburgh PA. If the marriage occured in WV then the Catholic Diocese Heirtage Center information I relayed earlier should be of help to you. If the marriage was in Avella, PA the vital records center would be in Pittsburgh. Let me know which one is correct, I don't know of any towns in PA that have the spelling you indicated near the WV border, but there are quick a few small villages along the border. marie yeager <firehorse1331@gmail.com> wrote: LeAnn, You are such a dear, I am assisting a computer/genealogy illiterate friend. One of the children was supposedly born in Glen Robins OH, One supposedly in Pittsburgh, PA, The family was in Aiella Pa for the draft reg in 1918. The family would have been in south WVA around 1913 near Glen White/ Lester area. I expect the marriage would have been near Glen White. Family was catholic, Polish / Austrian. I know Ohio genealogy, but not for immigrant ancestors. Bit of a difference in the research techniques. The butchering of the names makes things difficult. My thanks to you for your reply.

Barbara, One thing I have noticed is that the family attended St Adlaberts in toledo Ohio. I also noticed there was a St Adalberts near Glen Robins. When searching the family in chicago who claims they are not related, It seems the obits list a St Adalberts as well. I expect that St Adalberts would have been a Polish or Polish / Austrian / Ukranian congregation. No matter which of the locations I am exploring. Sadly long distance genalogy is a hurry up and wait situation. LOL, I sadly on the other hand am not a patient person, I wish I could be up there hitting the necessary locations for answers. Thank you so much for your offer. I do not wish to put you out being so far off an exact course. If I come upon something more difinitave that I think you can help with, I promise to let you know. In the mean time, Advice and direction is always welcome.

LeAnn, You are such a dear, I am assisting a computer/genealogy illiterate friend. One of the children was supposedly born in Glen Robins OH, One supposedly in Pittsburgh, PA, The family was in Aiella Pa for the draft reg in 1918. The family would have been in south WVA around 1913 near Glen White/ Lester area. I expect the marriage would have been near Glen White. Family was catholic, Polish / Austrian. I know Ohio genealogy, but not for immigrant ancestors. Bit of a difference in the research techniques. The butchering of the names makes things difficult. My thanks to you for your reply.

LeAnn, I am sorry to be a bother, Do you believe that the diocese would have records of families very near the WVa borders in either PA or OH? This would be so helpful if they do.

No , my mother worked for the diocese when I was younger and they only have the records for West Virginia. But if you tell me where in Ohio and PA maybe I can get you some contact information. I live in Ohio.....near the WV border so maybe I at least would have that information for you.

Roslyn, The fact that this was on the internet makes me think you might be able to locate more information about your ancestors at the port of embarkation. Subka/Supka could be in Poland but at the time your ancestors went to Australia, part of Poland was ruled by Prussia. You/we need to figure out how to spell this location in Polish. Of course, that means we need to locate it! Here's a possibility: http://www.kartenmeister.com/preview/City.asp?CitNum=13672 It shows that in German, the name was spelled Subkau. Probably pronounced similarly to your "Subka." Note that the name in Polish is spelled Zopcow and was at one time located in West Prussia. Note the locations of the Lutheran and Roman Catholic parishes. Debbie greg garden wrote: > Debbie, > > Thanks for this site.

Would someone please tell me how my Grandmother's name would have been pronounced?  Lucja- Like Lucia as in Santa Lucia or as Lusha? Wish I could remember what my Mom had told me. Thank you. Tina Kubik Korte

Roslyn, The Alardus was not lost. It became known as the "Fever ship." http://www.norwayheritage.com/articles/templates/voyages.asp?articleid=47&zoneid=6 It's probably miracle your ancestor survived.

Debbie, They came out on the Alardus. Apparently the ship was supposed to have got lost I was told. I do have the shipping records but have never really looked properly at them because when I first got the information I was very raw at genealogy and did not know what to look for. I will check them out. I was also told it was Subka but have not been able to verify this information. This is why I joined the Polish group hoping someone is able to put me on the right track.
