SISTI

Posted By: Beth Rupert

Could someone please help me? Where in the world, no pun intended, can I find information about my Great Grandpa's relatives? We know that he left Fiume, Italy, which later became Rejeka, Yugoslavia, and now, I guess, is Croatia. Once over in the Broome County, Binghamton, NY area he changed his name to Harry Ross. He married a woman, Jennie Pearl Johnson, born 1/10/1884, so that might be a clue as to his age, had two children, my Grandma being the eldest, born in 1903, and took off on the family, we think, going to the Paterson, NJ area. He was a gambler and had a wooden leg, a colorful chap. My Mom has always wanted to know more about him, and so do I. Where would I start to get the information on him, and his parents and grandparents? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, and have a great rest of the weekend. Sincerely,
