OK Lisa,

I cannot find any children of that marriage....

Doesn't mean there wasn't any, but if there were i cannot find them !!

Onto the deaths!

Any idea of when they died??

Tracey

Lisa Report 7 May 2008 21:34

No never found any deaths in either name, he will be dead im sure unless hes nearly 100!?

ahh that explains why i cant find them..
i do know Harry Kausmans dads name was Willam, and was deceased at the time of the wedding to Joan..

Are you wanting to go backwards too??

I think maybe we ought to find a marriage for Sheila?

What do you think?

Tracey

Lisa Report 7 May 2008 21:36

When you say that you have searched for joan and gordon,s death have you checked year by year.
There is also the possibility that they are still alive.
Being the surname kausman is quite unusual there is a Joan kausman on the 2002-2007 electoral roll 192.com.

yeah im not bothered about going backwards really, that would nice in time, but would just really like to find out if Joan was alive, if Sheila is alive, if she was my Dads half sister, or if he had any children with Joan that would be related.

Trouble is, its such a sensitive subject, as my theory is that Joan and Harry were having an affair during his marriage to Margaret..and this is why she had him adopted...

So how on earth i would even contact someone if i did trace a living relative would be tricky! "By the way your Dad had an affair" etc...but will cross that bridge if i ever come to it!

just be nice to give my Dad some idea of what happened...he isn't bitter at all, but just always had a yearning to know why he was given up iykwim?


He has tried several times over the past 60 yrs, but there hasn't been the technolgy to help him.

Isnt the internet amazing ;-)

I have just found the Joan you mention on my trace site, but the recency of that is actually 2006, someone else has been there since 2007 - 2008...:(

Lisa

Lisa Report 7 May 2008 21:46

really Richard? Thank you, thats interesting, will investigate!!

Well, i just searched for the name Kausman on fbmd from all years, do i need to do it individually? Maybe thats my mistake?

Lisa

Lisa Report 7 May 2008 21:47

Lisa, your dad's story touched my heart when I saw it which is why I wanted you to continue to get the help. It would be wonderful if through the efforts of these good people on here we could unite your dad with at least some of his family.
You must keep us up to date with your progress.

Lisa Report 7 May 2008 22:07

Ha..you beat me to it! suprisingly found a credit card with space on too! (spent a fortune this month already! oops!)

Does that mean that it could have been her, but she has moved? or it definitely wasnt her??

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 7 May 2008 22:07

At her age she has most probably died....

Still looking for Sheila's marriage, upto 1968 now!

Lisa

Lisa Report 7 May 2008 22:09

Richard big thankyou...does that mean i can order his death certificate? is it definitely him? Dont mean that to sound awful!

Do death certificates state cause of death? never ordered one before!

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 7 May 2008 22:13

The death cert will give you the cause of death, where he died, who reported it, who he was a husband or widower of...and his age and known name...

The data on it tho except cause of death is entirely subject to the informant knowing all the correct facts...
