Dear Tracie;

Hi. My name is Cathy Bankz and your maternal grandfather (Buddy) Elmer was my Dad's Brother. I am Chester (or Charles daughter) in Vancouver, B.C. I might be your 1st, or 2nd cousin. I was so excited to see what you have posted on this website. I have been searching for any blood family for years since; I was a teenager. I unfortunately, never got to meet my Dad and I would of like to but, he disappeared when I was only a baby and my Mother was still young. My Mom's mom- my maternal grandmother and her husband ( my grandfather) ended up raising me on Vancouver Island. I had almost given up ever knowing anything of my "blood relatives or my heritage" until; I saw your posting today! Years ago, when my daughter was 3 years old, (she is now 21), I met a lady who turned out to be my Dad's second wife. Leita Bankz. She gave me some family photos of my Dad,and the original documents you speak of in your history, below. It was the only information, I had ever been able to get on my "family" and my Dad. I have the marriage and Birth Certificate but, never knew what nationality "my family name was" and always wanted to. I would be so delighted to speak with you on the phone, or e-mail. It would be so great to finally meet a blood relative and know more about my family. Thank you for posting, our family story on the website. It is more hope that, I have had in years! You can reach me at the e-mail address above, and I can e-mail you & then, phone you if, you like. I am a teacher for young children here in Vancouver, B.C. Where are you? I would be happy to share what information I have, and my grandfather's family that I was raised with is in Edmonton, AB and I tried years ago to write a letter to the "family", only to have it returned. Would you pls. e-mail me? I would love to know more, and help you.

Sincerely,
Cathy Bankz-ECCE/I/t

I'm looking for information on Alexander Bananch (b. abt 1876) and Jozefa/Josie Mycek (b. abt 1887). Alex immigrated to the US in 1902. They married at St. Ann Church in Chicago on 16 Apr 1907 and lived for a time at 2027 W. 18th Street in Chicago.

Alex was a tailor and owned his shop. They had two daughters (Stephanie b. 1908 & Veronica/Vera b. 1912). Vera married Raymond Walter Laase and lived in Chicago. Vera died 17 Jan 2007.

Thanks for any help you can offer. I'm trying to find out Alex and Josie's parents names and where they were from in Poland, brothers, sisters, etc. There were other Banach's in the Chicago area, but I don't know if they were related.

Buffalo NY .. I am a Banach from buffalo, and I am son of Todd, son of Thadeus who was of a family of twelve born outside of Buffalo. I don't know if there was a Henery in that twelve, but there was an Arthur, a Peter, and a Ted. I can look into it but it might be a lead.

All of my Banach's are from this area and went to the catholic church in Raczkowo. I do not have the people mentioned in your post, but perhaps we can collaborate more to see if there is a connection. My relationship to the Banach's is my mother who married a Krysmalski here in the US. It thier parents who immigrated to the US in the very early 1900's.

I am enclosing my private email for you...just replace the words "no spam" with an @ symbol.

If you would be kind enough to contact me privately, it would be much appreciated. :)

Susan is my Aunt (great). I have been in contact with my cousin Sandra over the last little while and not too long ago she passed on Aunt Susans contact info to me. I haven't had time yet to give her a call although Sandra did tell me that she was interested in hearing from me. I am not sure if she has an email addy or not but through my research I have uncovered a great deal and have alot of information to share with her. Most of my information would have to be emailed preferably as I am HORRIBLE with snail mail. LOL
At any rate if Aunt Susan is interested in conversing with me let her know I will be more than happy to hear anything she can tell me and I will share whatever information she would like to hear.

Give her my love and thank you for writing!!!

Love Tracie

Re: Banach from Banaszewski, Banners

CraigJayRichardson — 2007-09-14 12:20:53Z

Could the original name have been Banach? My gg-grandfather Michal apparently changed his name from Banach to Banaszynski, because he was identified as "Michal Banaszynski (Banach)" in the 1863 record of his marriage to Julianna Murkowska in Kcynia, and his parents were listed as Jan and Anna Banach.

The family migrated to Milwaukee in 1874, and later some of Michal's descendants changed their last name from Banaszynski to Banner.

BTW, do you happen to know the area from which Paul Banaszewski and Mary Velick came?

Re: Jamel Elvin Bankz Born approx. 1905; I believe he was from East Germany

mysticblue114 — 2007-04-13 01:42:37Z

Below is the information I have so far on the Banks and Biehlers:

James Austin Banks was born on April 24, 1804 in Richmond, Yorkshire England. He married Grace Mary Walker on February 4, 1829 in Knarnesboro England. They had seven children named Anna, Thomas, James (b.1837), Sarah, George, Isabel and Grace. Both James and Grace Banks died in Monroe Wisconsin in the 1880s. According to the birth records about their children, they moved to America between 1835 and 1837.

As for the Biehler line, Maximillian Biehler was born on May 9, 1826 in Schwartwald Baden, Germany and died on January 30, 1907. He married Roseina Gilgore (b. 1828)and they had nine children: Henry Theodore, Joseph, Mary, Johanna, Lena, John, Magdalena, Henry M. and William C.

William E, Henry M and John M died as children. It is unknown where the earliest child was born, but the next was Joseph who was born in 1851 in Ohio. Therefore, they emigrated before that date.

My two lines of Biehler and Banks do not intersect until my parents marriage in 1969. By then the last names were Hodges and Biehler.

You are welcome to email me at mysticblue@earthlink.net for further information if you would like.

mysticblue114 — 2007-02-25 23:23:05Z

You listed the surname Biehler in your message. I am wondering what the connection is between the surnames Biehler and Bankz. My grandfather's name was Biehler and I also have the family name Banks in my family history (1800s). Biehler came from Germany but from what I can find on Banks (with an s, not a z) they are from Leeds and Yorkshire England. If this helps at all, I can get you more information, but it sounds as if you have researched this thoroughly so I do not know if the surname Bankz and Banks is the same. Let me know!

Hi
I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about Banachs that changed to that name around the turn of the century? I have a John Henry Banszewski in my family, he is one of my great grandparents. I don't know anything about the siblings except their names and birth/death dates. His parents are Paul Banaszewski and MAry Velick, the siblings are 6 in all - Anna, Peter, Frances, Frank, John Henry, and Stella. Some of the siblings went by Banach, and some kept Banaszewski, and one, John Henry, changed to Banners.

Jamel Elvin Bankz Born approx. 1905; I believe he was from East Germany

Tracie_MacPherson — 2007-01-27 04:26:18Z

Anyone have any ideas on the surname BANKZ?

I am writing this letter because I have run out of options and ideas so this letter is written out of pure frustration and sadness. I have a surname that seems at least to me impossible to trace, I can not seem to find any information on it in the way of an origin. I believe the family name was spelt on phonetics here in Canada so I have resigned myself to the fact that it is not in its original form. My family name is BANKZ. I have a bit of a story for you so hopefully I can make it a good read. I am looking for the family of my great grandfather; his name was Jamel Elvin Bankz born approx 1905.

His father was listed as Jacob Bankz and his mother was Elsie Marten

The earliest document that I have managed to locate on him is his marriage document, he was married 1927 in Alberta, Canada to Miriam Catherine Price. They had 12 children I believe, one of which was my maternal grandfather Elmer (Buddy) Richard Bankz he was the eldest.

In 1947 the children were torn apart and split up due to the untimely passing of their mom (Miriam), the youngest at the time was 2. Some of the children were placed in homes, some in catholic orphanages and the two youngest were adopted out. I have managed to locate all of my grandfather’s siblings except for one, the second eldest.

All have passed away including my grandfather who died when I was 11.

I have obtained all birth and death records for them and have even found some of their children who I guess are my second cousins and my mom’s first cousins. From that point alone it has been a rewarding search but has turned up little in the way of family information. As it turned out one of my grandfather’s sisters spent the last 31 years of her life searching for the family. I was privileged enough to be able to go through the information she had compiled but most of it was information based on assumptions.

There is no one left for me to talk to about my family history and I am not sure were else to turn. I have posted on countless websites, had numerous paid searches done and have literally written thousands of letters.

I ordered a macro search on the last name and the results came back saying the family originated in West Prussia. I don’t know how much credence one can put into those but I thought I would try it at any rate hoping it would turn up something.

The most I know about the family is that my great grandfather’s origin was stated as German on the legal documents I have. I have had a wonderful man who is a German Genealogist working with me but it seems impossible without a place of origin to really even start to look. He believes the family came from East Germany, perhaps from around the Danzig area. He bases this on a photo I have come into the possession of that I believe was of Jamel (my great grandfather), his brother and their parents along with the information I have given him. I am still trying to locate someone that maybe able to give me a definite identification of the people.

The photo contains plants in the foreground, I wrote almost two hundred botanists looking for identification, perhaps hoping that the plants had their own story to tell. I received an amazing response and the plants were identified almost unanimously as a basil plant and a mustard plant, it was further suggested that it was most likely a kitchen garden. I know that basil is not an uncommon plant but who would grow mustard in a kitchen garden? I am not sure what I can do with the information but it was interesting at any rate.

My (assumed) great grandfather in the picture has tattoos maybe military but I have had little success in identifying them. I have posted it on many websites and even managed to get it in as the feature article in a genealogy magazine. I have been in contact with MANY wonderful people through JewGen and so many have provided a lot of insight but nothing in the way of concrete information. I am told that the names Jamel and Elvin are usual Jewish names but for me have proved to be almost as uncommon as the surname.

The war seemed at least by documents to give him a cause of concern but I am not entirely sure why. In 1936 he converted his family to Catholicism, was it for protection, or for aide perhaps? This remains an unanswered question. In 1939 he felt the need to change his first names to Ernie James and last name to Biehler and kept that name until the passing and burial of my g grandmother Miriam in 1947. I do not know what happened to him after that.

Records from social services in Alberta indicate that after the passing of their mother many things were tried in order to keep the children together including housekeepers and private placements, apparently my grandfather needed to find work and 3 months later the children were made wards of the court as Social Services said they could not locate the father and the children needed legal guardians.

My great grandfather Jamel was listed in 1940 as being a soldier in the Army and again in 1943 was listed with the R.C.A.F. as a cook. I am currently trying to obtain is military records but do not meet the criteria to receive them. I am unable to prove his death as I do not know what became of him and his change of name makes it difficult to prove him as Jamel Elvin Bankz. My latest letter was written over the Christmas holidays with a two page letter of explanation so I am praying they see my point and relinquish the information to me.

I have no personal knowledge of my family being Jewish but then again I don’t seem to have any personal knowledge of my family. LOL.

If you or someone you know could shed any light on any of this it would be most welcome!

Warmest Regards,

Tracie
