Jake & Eliza (JOHNSON) Lakes

MsKristi — 2 Feb 2004 1:34:57 GMT

In researching my George Matt LAKES, I ordered a death certificate on a George Matt that would be in the right age range of the one I am looking for. From the information on it, I am hopeful that this is the right one. The two people listed above-Jake & Eliza (JOHNSON) LAKES-are his parents. Any more information on these two would be appreciated. I believe they would have been located in the areas of Madison/Jackson/Rockastle County in Kentucky.

Thanks,
Kristi

searching for my father and half brother

metussey — 5 May 2002 11:41:06 GMT

I am Elaine Tussey my fathers birth name was Earl Lakes later he used the name Melvin Edward Tussey. My birth certificate states that my father was born in Louisville,ky. on or around Nov. 1926. My father was married once before he met and married my mother. His first wifes name was Irene. Together they had a son. He would have been born around 1946, perhaps in Ohio, Ky, or Indiana. My father had at least on sister by the name of Ruby Becker or Baker. And he had two brothers, one by the name of Terry Lakes. My father entered into the millitary under the name of Melvin Edward Tussey. Tussey was his mothers maiden name. Himes or Hienz was his fathers name. My father's nick-name was Rollie. He was arrested for robbing a dairy farm in Dayton, Oh. sometime around 1947. I was born in 1948 and my mother brought me to Tucson,Az. in 1952. My father came to Tucson in the early 50's for a short time and that was the last I ever saw of him. My mother passed away last year and shortly before she died I asked her again to please tell me more about my father. Then is when I learned that my father had been married previously and that I had a half-brother. I have no other relatives that are alive now with the exception of my own children and would like for my father and my brother to know what a wonderful extended family they have.

Anyone, please help me in my search if you can. Thanks
metussey.

looking for dad and half brother

metussey_1 — 23 Feb 2003 10:46:02 GMT

Hello, I received a message from a person reading through the board and she informed me of a posting by Dale Lakes, who was searching for his half brother. Perhaps there is a connection. My father's name is Earl Lakes, nickname of
Rollie. My birth certificate states that my father's birthplace was Ky. I am not certain of his DOB but it must be from 1926 to 1928. I was born in 1948 and I believe that my mother and father were married in 1947 in Dayton, Oh. My father war married prior to marring my mother and together they had a son, my half brother. My father has a sister by the name of Ruby Becker/Baker I'm not sure and other brothers and sisters. My father also used the name Melvin Edward Tussey. Please contact me at the above address if you have any information that could help me in my search. I have no other family aside from my own children and I would like very much to meet the rest of my family if at all possible. Thank you. elaine tussey. Tucson, Az.

William B. Lakes and Carter Lakes

Brina — 19 Jan 2001 12:04:52 GMT

I just recently started searching my family tree and was wondering if anyone could help me find info on William B Lakes(born July 22,1887), and his wife. I know that her name was Mary, but that is all. They would have been my great, great grandparents. Thier son Carlous was my great grandfather, and his son Carlos Henry was my grandfather.

Also I would like any info on Carter Lakes, especially from before he came to Kentucky. I know he was married to Edith Skinner, and that his father's name was Woodson, but that's all.

I am really interested on sharing Lakes info so please email me @ timbrina@hotmail.com. I will gladly share my info with all who inquire.

Thanks!

Leonard family

Ganma3 — 23 Jun 2001 11:11:11 GMT

Looking for info on Edward Leonard and his wife Annie Cairns Leonard.He might have been killed in a boating accident in 1911.They had a son named Charles Edward Leonard born Sept. 11,1909 In Louiville, Kentucky. He was raised in an orphanage in Anchorage, Ky. after his father was killed. Appreciate any information.

Effie (Etha) Lakes, Jim/Matt Lakes, and Luke Lakes

MsKristi — 2 Feb 2004 1:34:57 GMT

If any of these names sound familiar, please e-mail me (postette@mailcity.com).
Effie (nee Angel) was my great grandfather's sister. She was born in the early 1890s in Jackson Co. KY. and moved to IN sometime after 1910 . She had a son named Luke Lakes (probably in the mid 1910's) and died (we believe in Fayette County, IN) either in childbirth or shortly thereafter. I'm not sure about her husband's first name. My grandmother was looking at a picture of him with Luke and suddenly remembered the name "Jimmatt" (all one word like Jimbob!).
Details are very sketchy on this relative and would like to solve some mysteries surrounding her life and death.

lax (lakes)

DeeLakes75 — 6 Mar 2006 10:16:07 GMT

From Cindy's Lists, Swiss Link, there is a map of Switzerland showing an area in the north called "Laxx". Quick summary: Laxx was a part of the sovereignty of the District of Ilanz (Romansh:Glion). The name Ilanz/Glion goes back to the Celtic it-landa=granery, and is therefore characteristic for the fertile basin of the vally. In the late Middle Ages the old Dutchy split up into a number of small sovereign districts, which by teh 14th century had all been taken by the Barons of Belmont and united with these large possessions against the Dukes of Werdenberg-Heiligenberg in 1352. An exception in the development described was made by the commune of the "Free Men of Laxx, who went their own way. Now I know this is the true origin of the Lakes's :-).
