Hej Lis,

According to William Kulso's obituary, he was born in Lithuania.  You can see the obituary at http://www.fultonhistory.com/Newspapers%2021/Saratoga%20Springs%20NY%20Saratogian/Saratoga%20Springs%20NY%20Saratogian%201966/Saratoga%20Springs%20NY%20Saratogian%201966%20-%205198.pdf#xml=http://www.fultonhistory.com/dtSearch/dtisapi6.dll?cmd=getpdfhits&u=223aecf5&DocId=4795386&Index=Z%3a\Index%20I-E-V&HitCount=8&hits=51+58+325+32e+d3e+d4a+d5a+d5e+&SearchForm=C%3a\inetpub\wwwroot\Fulton_New_form.html&.pdf

Hi Paul

Thank You


Thats is odd - I have a postcard from the Family where the backsite says "Uncle William" - and i have talked to a relative - WHO sida its uncle William - but she do not know more about him.

I am curios to know what his conection to Denmark could be.

Hej Lis,

Perhaps he left Lithuania and stayed in Denmark and then went to the US.  So far I have not found him entering the US but I will try to find his arrival.

Hi Paul

Thank You - it seems strange though - maybe its not the same Uncle William and there have been some errors when trying to make this ancoster chart - i have found a few.

Hej Lis,

I couldn't find William or his brother Frank's record of coming to the USA.  My guess is that they changed their names when they came to the US.  If I can help you with research in the US just let me know.
