Notes for SAMUEL SPITZER:

From 1hspitzer@comcast.net

 

Dear Dr. Remus,

 

 

My name is Helene Spitzer. I have just recently started the process of finding relatives i have never met. My research led me to Romansdorf, Ukraine, so i googled 'romansdorf'. What a wealth of information! I want to thank you so much for providing me and any searchers like me with some really important information.

 

My 'first find' was the birth of Louise, daughter of Samuel Spitzer and Christine Klukas. Louise was my grandmother, mother of my father, Edward. She was not married at the time, so she gave her son her last name. All we ever knew growing up is that his grandfather's name was Samuel Spitzer, and that around 1900, he took most of his many children (reputed to be 21, divided among 3 wives) and moved to Brazil. That seems to be the last anyone ever heard of him. My father was born at the end of 1900.

 

As I continue reading and searching, i find that Brazil was a relatively common destination. I am working with the Family History Center to access copies of information from Brazil. I have also requested information from Poland, from the area of Lodz, where my grandmother claimed to have been born. I am also requesting information from the EWZ files via FHC. I will continue my search until I don't need to search anymore.

 

Our family's journey took us from Pulin (Chervonoarmesk), Ukraine, to what became West Germany, during WW2 (1943-44), and then to central California (1952).

 

If you are interested in including some of our family's information, I would be happy to provide it. And, if there is any other information regarding our branch of the family that you have discovered, I would be pleased to know it.

 

Thank you again for all of your efforts in your research.
