My husband is descended from Maria Feil/Feyl. The family was Roman Catholic. Maria was born abt. 1857 in Opatovice, Bohemia, lived in Bare (which was a street or a town name) and married Joannes Brezina, a woodsman in November 12 of 187l.
Maria had a half brother, Josephus Schvartz that raised her son Antun following the death of Joannes Brezina in a tree cutting accident. The area where they lived was for a time Croatia and later a part of Austrian empire.

Hey, I'm working on Feils (w/ an 's'). I need your input.

Re: Feil Family Search

HxSeeker — 2010-10-25 22:11:58Z

Wow! That might fit into the clan

Did any of them have a daughter
named Marija (we think) born about 1845
She had sons, one named Antun and at least one daughter.
aka Anton, Anthony, Antoni, etc?)

Initally was married to a man who was a blacksmith, named Brezina who was killed in we believe 1888.
And then she remarried a German man, possibly named Hammacheck (?spelling)

Son, Anton was born 5 May 1879 in Zdenci, Orahovica Croatia
traveled to Pennsylvania, United States of America in Feb 1903

She most likely was the daughter of a Josephus Feyl/Feil

Looking forward to your reply.

Good morning!

I trace back through
Mary Jane "Mamie" Feil, married Josiah Henry "Tode" Hughes
Julious August Feil, married Agnes Bassett
Christ F. Feil, married Mary M. Rogers

Julious August (commonly referred to as August) married (2) Nellie Henrietta Mewmaw, who was about Mary Jane's age at the time, and there was a rift in the family.

Are these the Feils you seek?

kdurst51 — 2006-12-22 19:59:40Z

I am searching for information on the family of Josiah Joshua Sims and Mildred V. Fiel/Feil. Josiah was born Jan. 7, 1907 in Garrett Co., MD, and died July 22, 1952 (presumably in Butler Co., PA). Mildred was born Sept. 14, 1910 in PA and died April 1982 in Mars, Butler Co., PA. They had two children: Alberta Marie Sims (b. May 1, 1931) and Harland Eugene Sims (b. Aug. 2, 1940 in MD; d. March 25, 1988 in OH).

I know Alberta had at least two children: Cheryl Sue Lester and Robin Lester. I know Harland had at least three children: Douglas R. Sims, Eugene W. Sims and Pamela J. Sims. Harland's wife's first name was Patricia.

I am searching for obituaries, birth information, marriage information, etc. on anyone in this family.

If you can help, please contact me. I will be happy to share what I have accumulated on the Sims Family.

Thank you.

My husband and I have looked over the LDS filmstrips of records for the Roman Catholic Church.

Robert Jerin from the Rootsweb list told us that the name which was initially read by Vladimir Brezina as Joan Brezina

Feil family from Bohemia

Hello, I have in my fille next information:
Feil Anton (1860) and Feil Michael Ignatz (1854) both cabinet makers and sons of Feil Ignatz (1823) and Margaretha Gutterer (1828) emmigrated from Domazlice area to USA before 1880. Next siblings: Barbora (1856), Margaretha (1858), Frantiska (1865) and Karel (1867) perhaps stayed in Bohemia. Domazlice area is in southwest of Bohemia and lot of emmigrants from this area settled down in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Are they your ancestors???

This may be remote, but my husband's ggrandmother was Mary Feil who married Joan (John) Brezina. They stayed in Croatia I think, possibly Austria/Hungary. But, other family members went to North America and to Brazil.
It's too early in our research to know the names of the relatives that went to Brazil. We do not have sufficient background information yet. Keep in touch. Juliejb@ptd.net

Hi,

Hoping someone can help me out. I just started my family history and have already ran into a snag. I can only go back 3 generations before my family came over from Germany ( I think). My great aunt just told me she gave my gg grandfathers original passport away to either a historical or genealogy society. I just about cried. Anyway if any of you have any info regarding a George Feil from Minnesota DOB 1864, it would be great to hear from you. I am told he and his four brothers came over to the United States, and once they got to NY, they split up.

Never know there where so many Feil's out there. Thought I was the only one. Glad to see there are so many.

Thanks,
