Genealogy / Stanislaw Zdziejowski and Regina Noviska (was my ancestry Gypsy?) [5]
I am trying to track my heritage on my mother's mother's side of the family. I cannot locate anything through ancestry.com, immigration records, ship passenger records to Canada for either of my great grandparents names. They were promised to each other a children and my great grandmother was 'sold' to my great grandfather's family for the marriage.
We have wondered whether this is something the old world gypsies did. The names that I have been give are:
Stanislaw Zdziejowski and Regina Noviska (Noviski was her father's name). I have tried to locate a list of names within the Gypsy/Roma community on the web and found one but neither of these surnames were listed. How else can I do research on. My family name? Thank you for any help that you can give me.
