Adventures in Lithuanian Genealogy: Lutkiewicz and Dowgwillo Family Stories

By Sheriene Saadati

Book Overview

Through reviewing documents held for over a century in St. Petersburg Russia, DNA tests, the Facebook Lithuanian Genealogical Society, various genealogy websites and traveling to Lithuania, I have unraveled stories of my noble Lutkiewicz and Dowgwillo ancestors who were born in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, once the largest country in Europe. Over the centuries my ancestors lived through Czarist Russian occupation, Napoleon's invasion, uprisings against occupation, Soviet and Nazi occupation, and independence. At the turn of the 20th century many ancestors, including my great grandparents immigrated to the United States. This is a collection of their stories.
