I'm looking for information on my father's mom. My dad just
died and I discovered the name of his mom and a brother I never knew about. My
dad, then named Julian Karpowicz, was baptized at St.Patrick's Church in
Kemmerer January 26, 1913. The certificate of baptism leaves the name of the
mother blank. I now know her name was Mery or Mary. I have reason to believe she
was an American Indian, maybe from Florida, Pennsylvania, or Wyoming. I'm
thinking since my dad was born in Cumberland and baptized in Kemmerer, the
marriage of his parents may well have occurred in Wyoming. If I can locate the
marriage records I might find information on my grandma and the part of my
ethnicity the family always hid.

I am looking for any information on my Grandfather Nicholas
WOLF and my Grandmother Julia KLOPSCIK, who were married in Jackson on November
24, 1923. Julia lived there with her parents Charles and Margaret Klopscik, but
I'm not sure how long they lived there, or when Julia met Nicholas. Nicholas
came to the US after serving in the Austrian Army in WWI, and Julia was born in
Pennsylvania in 1905, but raised in Hungary, and at the age of 16, came back to
the US. I'm wondering what would have been in Wyoming to move there, and where I
would find the marriage certificate, Lincoln or Teton County.
