• Notes

  Source for Henry Kapusta's family data is Luci Kluth. NOTE: 1) Some deeds for this family are filed under KAPUSTUA. 2) Found a birth record for a male child born Oct 28, 1907 while the family was living at 1408 Redman. It is unclear who that child was. According to Henry's petition for naturalization the family lived on Redman Ave. in 1926... then according to Henry's death certificate the family lived on Redman in 1941... RESIDENCES: 1906 - 36 Redman Ave., Cleveland, Ohio (old style addressing) 1907 - 1408 Redman Ave., Cleveland, Ohio (new style addressing) 1908 - 1225 Redman Ave., Cleveland, Ohio 1911 - 1225 Redman Ave., Cleveland, Ohio 1924 - 1324 Redman Ave., Cleveland, OH. Purchased 1310 Redman in 1924 (as rental property?) and later sold it in the late 1940's. They also had a farm on Pettibone Rd in Geauga County (lived here prior to 1920). Kept the farm but moved to Brookview Blvd., Parma, OH. 1324 Redman is the address on his death certificate as his place of residence in 1941. IMMIGRATION: Arrived in NYC from Hamburg on the S.S. Victoria, 26 May 1900. Listed his residence in Poland as Rzochow which is just a few miles from Dobrynin where Ludwik's wife came from. On the Ellis Island website, there is a Heinrich Kapuosta listed as having arrived 14 May 1900 on the Graf Waldersee who lists his residence as Kielkow and whose destination was his brother, Anton, in New York. The village of Kielkow is the next one down the road from Rzochow, so either it is actually Henry or a very close relative. MARRIAGE: Cuyahoga County Marriage Records: Volume 0057 Page 0354 (copy in my possession) The marriage record states that they were married by Rev. Victor Szyrocki but does not give the name of the church. Rev. Victor Szyrocki was on Kazimer Ave. in 1910, per the census. Under the occupation column it shows "Minister" and then "Sacred Heart Church". That's on the east side in the E.71st and Harvard vicinity. Sacred Heart Church on Krakow avenue confirmed that there was a Fr. Szyrocki as Pastor as early as 1903. CENSUS: 1910 - Unknown. Checked ED 18 for Bainbridge in Geauga County but Henry was not found there. Checked New York -- not found. If he arrived in the U.S. in the late 1890's he had to be living SOMEWHERE and at least a few of his children were already born by 1910 so should show up too. CENSUS: 1920 - ED 265, Sheet 3B, Lines Bainbridge, Geauga County, Ohio Farm on West Road. Listed as KAPUTA, Henry on the census sheet. Oddly, he is listed as German/Polish. Arrived 1897 or 1899 (hard to read) CENSUS: 1930 - ED 726, Sheet 15B, Lines 52-58, Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio 1324 Redman Avenue Listed as KUPUSTI, Henry on the census sheet. Arrived 1900.
