QUERY TIPS
1. Include surnames in CAPITAL LETTERS
in the subject line and the first time you use it in the
query.
2. Be specific. People do not often respond to queries
such as "Send me all information about the POWELL
family"
2. Be specific. People do not often respond to queries
such as "Send me all information about the POWELL
family"
3. Check online sources for answers to general research
questions before posting to a list. Genealogists love to
help those who help themselves.
4. Try to stay away also, from using too many
abbreviations unless your space is limited. Many
researchers may not recognize the abbreviations you are
using.
5. Try to use an email address you will be sticking
with. There are thousands of queries on the Internet
with no way to reach the posters because the email
address is invalid.

POWELL family. George Lincoln Powell, b. Danville, PA 23
Sep 1862 to John and Mary Powell. Moved to Chester, PA
in 1888, and married Mary Alice Jones (b. OH 1867, daughter of
Wm. & Ann W. Jones) in Houtzdale, PA. George & Mary lived in
Chester, PA, where they had 3 children: Mary Alice, b. 1890;
Annie Gertrude, b. 1893; and George Andrew, b. 24 July 1895. I
have many documents on George L.'s family but very little on his
parents. Although it appears that the John and Mary Powell
found in 1860 census in Danville with several children are his
parents and siblings, I cannot be certain without more
information. I hope my info helps someone with their
research and look forward to info on John and Mary or the
parents of George L. Powell. Scott Powell, Sr. Cell

My name is John Gubancsik and I am researching my
GUBANCSIK surname. I have found several GUBANCSIK's
that immigrated from Hungry and stated on their
passenger records that they were going to Youngstown,
Ohio. This would have been between 1900-1920. I
have been able to find only one record in Mahoning Co.
That is a WW1 draft reg. card for Andy GUBANCSIK. It
showed he lived on Washington St. in East Youngstown.
It was dated 12 Sep 1918. Andy was born 30 Nov 1885 in
Hungry. Any information on GUBANCSIK's in Mahoning Co.
would be appreciated. My email address is
jgubancsik@hotmail.com. |

I am Albert Lee I live in UK and together with an Australian
cousin Faye are researching our joint Bagwell
ancesters. We seek descendants of Charles John Bagwell
born in London July 7 1875 and who we believe emigrated
to Ohio Mahoning via Canada. Prior to
emigration he was like his father a skin dresser and known as Jack.
He came to Canada on the steamer Parisian from Liverpool
departing July 23 1903, giving his destination as
Peterborough Ontario but moved to Youngstown
Ohio USA about 1910. In 1919 we have his wartime alien
registration showing he was married to an Esther E and working
at Truscon Steel Corp, probably as a pattern maker. He appears
in the 1920 census with Esther E and a son
Rudolf Bagwell living in Mahoning and again in
1930 census. We do not have Charles
John Bagwells death but his widow Esther E
died in Aug 13 1961. We believe Rudolf Bagwell
was a civil engineer who died before 2008 but there is at least
one son Kenneth Bagwell who may be alive. We
believe his mother was Roberta "Bobs" Bagwell a
professional photographer who died in 2008. We are keen to make
contact with any living relatives to see if the trail above is
really Uncle Jacks. Our Bagwell line goes back to the late
1600s in Exeter, Devon England. We hold many early victorian
papers and photographs including uncle Jacks which we could
share with genuine relatives. Please contact me Albert Lee via
email at

Posted 3/24/10 I am looking for the 1896/7 marriage record for
William PORTER b. 23.5.1866 in Hednesford,
Staffordshire, England; emigrated to the US c. 1885
and Jennie ( maiden name unknown) b. 10.1.1872 in
Rotherham, Yorkshire, England; emigrated to the US
c.1890.The 1900 US Census has them living in
Youngstown, so I am assuming that they married
there. I have tried the IGI but to no avail,
although I have managed to track them via the US
Censuses up to 1930. I have also found their death
records.
I should be most grateful if someone
could help me with this - I really need to find
Jennie's maiden name.I have a good deal of
information about the English ' Porter ' line which
I am willing to share with relatives.

I'm looking for information about the LOPUSCHANSKY
family from Poland. After surviving the Holocaust in at
least one concentration camp, Dmytro Lopuschansky
arrived in New York on April 26, 1951, and joined
someone
(his brother?) in Campbell, Ohio. Eventually, Dmytro
left Campbell and at some point ended up in Athens,
Ohio. Based on my research so far, I believe one of
Dmytro's relatives (John Lopuschansky) attended Chaney
High School in Youngstown. I'm especially looking for
info about Dmytro's pre-United States life: which Polish
city/town was he from,
which concentration camp(s) was he in, where was he
between the end of WWII and coming to the U.S., etc.
Anyone who has any information, please
respond to:

Searching for info on "MISS EMELINE MOORE" {sic}
who's address was DUCK CREEK, TRUMBULL COUNTY, OHIO
according to a letter dated September 9, 1853.
She was sent a letter from a student at the POLAND
ACADEMY in POLAND OHIO; and it appears they were
courting. A confusing thing is that his last name
appears to be MOORE as well. Either ASHLY or A.S.
MOORE. He was attending the Poland Academy, which
was a school that William McKinley taught at, in
1853.

I am looking for any information regarding HENRY
KIRTLAND abt. 1797, England. I know that he was in Ohio
in 1834 when daughter, HESTER KIRTLAND, 1834 was born.
It's possible his first wife was Mary and second wife
was SARAH FULLER abt. 1810, New York. It's likely his
relatives were one or more of the many KIRTLANDs living
in Columbiana County - Linda Christiansen
