| Searching for SHALUTA information in theWestern PA area around 1925.My grandfather John SHALUTA, was struck by a train and killed at Pittsburgh, January 1925.My grandmother remarried 2 other times and he was all but forgotten.I've looked for marriage records, census, immigration, soundex passenger lists, and he is not there?The name orginiates from Russia, and I do have a Russian passport with the name Translated as Ivan Eufimov Shelutin, who left from Libau, Courland in what is now Latvia, 1913. Also searching for my mothers surnames MONTGOMERY & LAMB/LAMM.I've taken the MONTGOMERY line back to James H. MONTGOMERY born in Rockbridge Co., VA. 1834-35. Married Mary E.J. Gibson in Rockbridge Co., VA. in 1857.After the date of his marriage the trail stops cold...the whole family disappears until I find Mary remarrying in Barbour Co.,WV. in 1872.?I have know idea what happened to James H. Montgomery after 1857, although 4 children were born to James and Mary. My LAMB descendents I have traced back to James LAMB inPocahontas Co., VA (WV) to the 1770's.The LAMB line is a little strange...I've found William R. LAMB (James's grandson) listed in the 1860 & 1870 WV census as William R. LAMB, but he and all his descendents are listed as LAMM in every census that follows? The SKIDMORE surname I am researching with my wife, this is her surname.We have found a great deal of information online on this name.We have also research locally as I have easy access to our state's archives.The SKIDMORE family was well documented and we have followed her direct line back to England in the 1500's.We have filled in quite a few gaps from 1900 to the present. We have photographs of all the gravesites of my wife's grandfathers in WV., back to her 4 great-grandfather Joseph SKIDMORE,Jr. in Pendleton Co., WV. The HAMRICK surname is also my wife's.Her mother was a HAMRICK. We have a great deal of information on this surname also, in part thanks to a great book just published by Les Hamrick, Jr.The title is "ROOTS & WINGS, The Family Record of Benjamin Hamrick".The HAMRICKS we are interested in for our book are mostly in WV. & VA. The below listed genealogy reports are the most update information we have at this time (Jan 1998).We are sure there will be errors and if any are found we would appreciate being notified, so that further research can be conducted for corrections. We are just amateurs trying to track our roots for the purpose of self publishing books which related to the direct lines of the above listed surnames.These books to be passed down to our descendants. | |
