My grandfather was born in 1880 in Klein-Beregsau
(Nemeth is what he called it), a place just a
short distance from Kleinjetscha. His parents
and three generations of his grandparents,
however, lived in the village of Kleinjetscha.
Grandpa passed away long before I knew to ask
him about his boyhood, but he left us a written
account of his parents and grandparents and of
his early life, before he came to America in
1905. With his written account in hand and with
the help of libraries, Dietmar Giel’s
Kleinjetscha Family Book, and many “helping
hands,” I have traced Grandpa’s ancestors back
to the mid-1700s.
It is my hope that this village page will bring
together people with Kleinjetscha roots, so that
we might share with and learn from one another.
Please, if you have questions or if you have
information to contribute—photos, stories,
sites, historical data, family information—let
me know.
