I would like any additional information that you may have about the Michael Johannes Yax line. I am a descendant of Benjiman Yax, son of Francis Yax, son of Isadore Yax, son of Hubert Yax, son of Pierre Yax. I am especially interested in stories and pictures. I have a picture of Francis Yax and i believe Isadore Yax.
Thanks

Attention All YAX decendants.
I purchased 2 beautiful photo albums with over 100 photos at a thrift store. Album says it came from BUFFALO NY & most photos were taken at studios in BUFFALO NY.
the ONLY names found were GEORGE EHR. WIFE MARIAN YAX, & first names by three little girls. EVA LINA, LOUISA & CLARA.
One Man has on a Policeman uniform & another a Fireman uniform.
I would love to see these beautiful albums & their treasures returned to their family.
I live in Washington State .

The last name was originally Jacks. My understanding is that it was changed to the spelling "Yax" to preserve the correct pronounciation. This is perhaps why you cannot find information predating his.

Re: YAX, Cecelia

just4dinner1 — 2006-07-11 17:55:08Z

You and I have spoken before about Reaumes. Fabian, son of Louis and Charlotte Soumande was married to a Julia Landers (question on the last name) on 6 Feb. 1854. Julia died in 1902. Could she be the Gulia you asked about?
Their son John Fabian married Christine LaBelle from Elba Island and moved to Grosse Pointe.
Looking forward to your response, John

Hi Erin,

Make sure you go to Helen's site at

http://yax.tripod.com/yaxfamilygenealogy/ it is wonderful.

You can also go to your local library and see if they have the book called "Genealogy of the French Families of the Detroit River Region 1701-1936 volumes I and II" it is a wonderful book and you will find a lot about the Yax's in that book. They may be able to Interlibrary loan the book but if they do not have it but you will have to ask.

I hope that helps

Michael Johannes Jacks (YAX) was born July 1707, Allemand, Germany, died July 8, 1793, buried from St. Anne's Catholic Church, Detroit, MI. He and his wife, Catherine HERBINNE, eloped, immigrated via Rotterdam to Philadelphia on the ship Lydia in Sept. 1791. They were married in Goshenhoppen (now Bally) PA. by a Catholic priest even though Catherine was Lutheran. Catherine was born abt. 1726, Germany, died Jan 5, 1789. Detroit.

(Info originally sent to me from Wayne Solgot <wsolgot@i-is.com>)

Interesting story about their abduction by Indians on the Ohio River. Do you have it? I also don't have any info about their parents.

Re: Yax Family History

2003-12-16 18:36:02Z

Do you have any information on Michael and Catherine prior to coming to the US? I would like to know where in Germany they were born.

Thanks

The YAX's are also a part of my family tree. Please send me any information that you have on them? My sister was married to Roy YAX (Swartz Creek, MI). They were divorced, but not before having my niece (Andrea) and nephew (Adam) who have been living in Phoenix, AZ since the late 70's, early 80's. I'd love to be able to add the information that you have to my part of the family tree!
Lotsa Loves,
