What I have observed:
On the petition for naturalization, dead children are not listed.
Where I have looked:
- Microfilm records at the library and online death records for Yadvegy (Hattie) Muszynski, Musinski Mushinski (also with "sky"in stead of "ski").
- Also just looked for the first name Yadvegy and Hattie in the online death certificates.
- Chronilogical microfilm birth records index at the library for 1902, 1903, 1904 for any Muszynski, Musinski, Mushinski (also with "sky"in stead of "ski").
Where I need to look:
- Ohio marriage index 1920 and after
It's amazing to me how I can find so much information on some people and with others--all I have is one reference and they seem to disappear off of the face of the earth.
