Hi all! I've been using the prior suggestions to search thru the Czubs in Chicago but not seeming to get further ahead. My goal was to find a record on John Czub to indicate his parents names, or maybe an obituary to indicate sibling names or find a living member for this branch of the family. I requested a death certificate for John Czub - birth 1/22/1881, death 5/24/1943, but parent names are listed as unknown, birth place as Tarnow. Don't seem to find an obituary. (His wife was Mary born 2/2/1885, death 1/3/1931) >From census records, Czub children names are Stephen, Edmund, Marion, Valerie, Joseph, Mary C, Casimir and Camilla (Camille). From a hand-written sheet of paper I have (from a deceased aunt's papers), it lists the same names but she wrote that the only one of them that had children was Camille. The note says she married Jim Meehan and they had 8 children: John, Jim Jr, Kathy, Mary, Jeffrey, Lillian, and 2 more names starting with J that I can't read. Searching around, I can't determine if Jim or Camille Meehan (born 1924) are alive. I found an obituary for a Camille F. Meehan in Chicago born same year but it only listed one daughter so I don't think that is her. Meehan seems to be a pretty common name and all her children have common names as well. My aunt's hand-written note has the most current entry written as either 1988 or 1998. It gives an address for Meehan as 6221 South Talman Ave Chicago Il. I did a reverse look-up on this address but it lists an unrelated name (Tyrone Reese) and being a male name in age bracket 55-59, he is too old to be a grandchild of a married female child. Polish church records seem to be the best way to verify that John Czub was a brother/halfbrother of my great grandmother Salomea Czub (and for identifying any other siblings), but does anyone have any further suggestions how to identify or find more records on John Czub and his descendents? thanks! mick > Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2011 14:38:52 -0700 > From: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [POLAND] Czub siblings > To: [email protected] > CC: [email protected] > > Mrs. Mick: If you have been out of the loop for a while, you really must follow the other suggestions about PGS in Chicago's website and also the LDS new online is brimming over with Czubs!
