Tuschinski or Deskosski family

2006-09-26 04:08:22Z

I am searching for information on Johann Tuschinski, stonemason/bricklayer who lived in Marienwerder in the 1850s. He married Gottliebe Deskosski. Their daughter, Martha travelled to NZ in 1872 as a recruited domestic servant.

Re: Jeschke family from Gilwe, Marienwerder, West Prussia

I have an August Eduard Robert Jeschke from Marienwerder among my ancestors. He was born in Marienwerder 13 August 1844. Father: Heinrich Jeschke (born around 1814), mother: Marie or Anna Maria, born 1817 in Riesenburg, Westpreussen. I can see no connection to Gilwe, though. Are the two places far away from each other?
Kind regards

sarahatherton34 — 2005-08-05 00:38:21Z

Looking for his relatives. Born in 1921, died in August of 2000. According to info I've received, he was in the 5th Marine Division (Iwo Jima) during WWII, a captain in the 13th Regiment [artillery]. I think I may have some photos of him from his time on Hawaii, found among the photos my own father left. Another officer of the 5th Division thinks a couple of the photos are of Capt. Jeschke, and I would like to send copies to any relative who might recognize him for possible positive identification. Please contact me at shrew79109@yahoo.com if you are related and willing to help me with this.
Thanks,

Ingrid,

My mother's family name is Jeschke. They lived in Germany. She came to the US in 1959 after marrying my father, Ottomar Schroder. Her parent's names were Paul and Joanna (or maybe Johanna). She had a brother, Gunther, and a sister Giselle. My mother was born in 1938, her brother before that and her sister after that.

We live in Florida and know next to nothing about my mother's family.

My mother's maiden name was Jeschke. Her father's name was also Paul. Her mother was Joanna Herrmann. She had a brother named Gunther and a sister named Giselle. They all live in Germany. My uncle died in 1977. I think my aunt died in the 50s. My grandparents died in the 60s and my mom died 6 years ago tomorrow.

Re: u.s.a. jeschke's

Hi, Paul my name is also Paul Jeschke, but I am from Tasmania which is a state of Australia. My grandfather Edward was born in 1875 and also came from West Prussia. As far as I am aware he came from a village called Gilwe about 80-100km south of Gdansk. It may be that around 1900, 1 or 2 of his brothers may have migrated to America. If you think there may be any connection please return my email so I can provide more details.

Re: Jaeschke or Jeschke

2002-06-12 14:15:04Z

Yes. I did learn that not to jump to conclusions. Look at the year. You are responding to 2000. I made a lot of mistakes. and they can't be undone. If so I'd like to delete them. I knew nothing then.
I guess I didn't even think like a genealogist that I was using speculation. The same goes for Heinzs researach I am doing I can speculate that Hoerston and Hohls are the uncles and aunts. But I can't say for sure. nor can I say Timme came first for sure.
I suppose I could try and track them all down and correct all my mistakes. And believe me I had a lot of stuff wrong when I first started. Also I realize that some stuff should have been put in private email. As I had put too much on using up valuable space. I would rather have them all removed to tell you the truth. Most of them are embarassing to me.

As for speculation that is how one gets the ideas. However, one should say they are speculations. When I asked a relative something they left out speculation and I missed some terribly important details that would have helped me find who and what I was looking for.
Yes I have learned. And am sorry for the trouble this caused you.

whoops,,,,sorry

2002-06-12 14:02:05Z

i guess I thought generalities were okay. but I guess it does make a difference. a big difference especially war time.
very sorry.
Are you familiar with Koch, Winkelmann. They are the Heins or Heins ancestors that I uncovered.
I have to get Deans and Caines straight these days. as in Joann Caines of Florida. Then Hanson and Peterson.

ALBERT JESCHKE

Ldyflagger — 2002-09-15 01:50:34Z

In case anybody is interested, there is an Albert Jeschke buried on the Fort Lewis Army land in Pierce County, Washington. It must be where their old homestead was at one time.There is a fence around his grave.
I can't remember what type of marker it has, but I wrote down the name and yr (on the grave stone) when I was out there a couple yrs ago. All it says is, " Albert Jeschke - 1896"
Contact me if you want pics and I'll go take pictures with my digital camera.

Penelope
Thank you for your relpy. The information information that I have suggests that my grandfather Edward Jeschke did have a brother named Augustus or Augusta. The name of Gottlieb is unknown to me, however this is not to say that he was not a member of the family. As far as I know Edward also came from a large family of 6 or more brothers and sisters. Edward apparently also had a brother named Frederick and a sister called Mary. His parents may have been named Henry and Eva Jeschke. Prior to marriage Eva may have been a Reschke. Any further information that you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Joan--I can't believe what I am reading. Some of the things I told you were speculation and I read it on the message boards as though they were proven facts. Not aware that Gertrude EVER went to Germany. Her sister was Louise, NOT Florence and she only went to Germa y two times that I am aware of--not often. Their mother was Elizabeth, my grandmother. Your span of years is way off base. After reading several of these posted messages, I had to say something. Difficult enough to locate information but even harder when the facts are all mixed up and untrue.

Could another variation of the name be Jeshonke. My Grandfather, Karl was one of 12 childred (11 Boys 1 Girl) His father died when he was young and his mother Dorothy Nuenkirch sent the boys to work at area farms. My Grandfather lost touch with his siblings only to reunite with a brother in WWI. In adult life my Grandfather lived in the Berlin area, where my mother was born.

I have just started searching. My Grandmother is Clara Jeschke Willis. She was born in Minco OK in 1909. I have yet to find out anything on her father. All I know on her mother was that her brother died on the way over from Germany. Does her name or town ring a bell with your family?

Jeschke/Jeszka

muddytires25 — 2004-07-24 13:57:10Z

I'm looking for information on Theodore Jeschke, or any of the following. There were 12 children, the younger went by Jeschke, the older by Jeszka. Ladislaus 1882-?, Joseph 1885-?, Anna 1886-?, Bronislaus 1888-?, Theodore 1890-1943, Leakadia (possibly Lillian) 1891-?, Peter 1893-?, Edward 1895-? Clara 1899-late 1960's. I have no information on the other 3 siblings. To my knowledge everyone was born and raised in Chicago, but the older siblings could have been Poland/Germany. I know Clara did marry and has children, but my uncle doesn't recall anything else. Theodore married Minnie Koster or Koester and had 4 children, Myrtle (my grandmother), Minnie, Russell and Kenneth.

Does anyone know how to spell....
