Hi Nicki, yes i have facebooked the one on there but no reply, he only has 2 friends so i guessing he isn't a regular user.

There is a Chris Kausman on Facebook ............!!!

Google 'Chris Kausman' and something comes up about the 'road to goa - photos' and there is a photo of Chris Kausman in the 60s/70s!!!

Hi Eileen, thanks for reading!

The annoying thing is, there is a guy registered with a tree on here and he has the two other Kausmans on his tree, plus their father Woolfe, and he has listed his birthplace as Poland.. so maybe if these people are MY people then we originate from Polish Jews!

Have mailed him 3 times now, but he hasn't replied! Its annoying because he may have all the answers ive been looking for!!

Will just have to wait for their birth certs to arrive so cross reference the birth dates!

Just been reading this amazing detective story - can't wait for the next episode.........

It would make sense if they changed their christian names to something less German, it was very close to the 1914/18 war - after all the Royals did it, so why shouldn't others. I see one of them has Abraham, which is more Jewish than German, and even more cause for him to change his name at that time, and later. The English weren't always that nice to Jews either - think of Shakespear and Dickens.
I'll be tuning in for the next episode

Eileen
birth name

does anyone know my full sister
birth name Jennifer Ann M...........or H..........
date of birth 22nd September 1945 our mother Muriel Ethel M.........nee H.......... lived in Bisley and we were both born in Woking Maternity Hospital.
Adopted to different 'families' looking for her for over 40 years. Both my Christian names were changed so probably hers were too.
afterthought
Is Hymans possibly a version of James - in Scots Hamish is James....................

Also wondered if anyone had time to re-look at my theory regarding the 2 brothers

Maurice Arthur Kausman,yob-1904 london
Harry Gordon Kausman dob - 1910 23rd mar Shepherds Bush

(These are my grandfather and his brother)


and the fact that i have got death and marriage for both but can't find birth records for either...

yet i CAN find a

Maurice Abraham Kausman 1904 London and a
Hyman Harry Kausman 1910 London

i was wondering if these are the same people with name changes.

so basically i wondered if anyone could find any info on M Abraham/Hyman Harry...as i can't fnd any deaths/marriages for them...which would also support my theory that they are the same people.

I have ordered their birth certs to check out their exact d.o.b's to see if they match.(I have death certs for my two)

Thanks in advance!

Just found the following on the web - its an extract from someone's travel blog in 2004 -

In the Night Bazaar I had a look at some of the Lao textiles and made my way down to Rarearth (Room 2, 2nd Floor, Night Bazaar, Changklan Road, Chiangmai 50100 tel: 66 (0) 87179 2880, email:[email protected]) details updated May 08. The business is owned by Chris Kausman, an Englishman (and his Thai wife(?)).

Might be him?

No, no, no!! Didnt mean to confuddle you.

Pernille married a Thompson in 2002 - which is irrelevant but if you were looking for her on 2008 you wouldnt find her under Thorne.

Nicola just realised another connection!!!!

Christopher Kausmans mothers maiden name is Thompson? Now im confused!? Not sure how that would work, if at all...but is it possible? My brain is struggling!!

Lisa

Lisa Report 16 Jun 2008 17:46

Thanks for that Angela, that would make sense, and now you mention it, i think i read something along those lines last year sometime!

Nicola, just pm'd you!

I read somewhere that the GRO were not releasing the BMD after 2006 to internet sites, as they intend to get it transcribed themselves or something to do with data protection. The only way you can find out anything after 2006 you have to go to the local office and find out from them.
I am sure it was on one of the threads I saw this and then maybe saw it confirmed somewhere else.

There is this on 192.com for electoral roll

Electoral Roll 2002 - 2007
C KAUSMAN
other occupants ANJA K THORNE

Have you checked for Anja on 2008 electoral roll or 2002-2007?


Not sure if you already have this info? Perhaps someone can pm you with the details that applied at that stage. At least that would give you an area to concentrate on?

I do not know about deaths post 2006.

Hi Nicki,

Thanks for your help, appreciate you looking..i have looked myself and couldn't find one, but as you will come to realise, my checks don't really mean its true!!

so if he died after 2006 would it show yet?

I don't really know how the death process works with regards to adminstration!

With there being no recent electoral roll data on him, does that mean he just hasn't registered to vote? I thought that everyone had to register yearly by law?

Hello! Me again!

Still waiting on certificates regarding the Kausman mystery, but wondered in the mean time if anyone has chance, to see if they can find a marriage/death for

Christopher h kausman (Birth)
mar q1947 huntington
mmn thompson vol 4b page 709.


I cant find one and can't seem to find him on any electoral roll either..does this mean he is no longer living?

Am off to visit my Grandmothers best friend that i located thanks to u guys on Sunday, so hope she will know a bit more about Harry Kausman too!

If this Christopher is alive, he will be my Dads cousin and only living relative! So hope i can find him!
Have sent a letter to his last address in Hove, Brighton, but sadly no reply.

Hope someone can help!
Thanks in advance, hope you are all well!



Lisa.

Thankyou Richard!!!

Will order the cert now!!!
Its such a shame i / well you and everybody else, keep finding all of these people and they have all died so recently! Be nice to find someone still alive!!

I assume you didn'd find it on Ancestry or find my past? I looked for ages but didn't see it??
