Welcome! My name is Robert BRAITHWAITE, I am the web master of this site. Please contact me if you have any comments or feedback. This website was created on the 07 Oct 2008. About: the Braithwaite - Fritsch - Pietsch - Snaith Families Hi and welcome to my family web-site.I live in Brisbane Queensland Australia, with my wife Valerie BRAITHWAITE (nee MANSFIELD). I decided to research my family in 1994 when my father Frank Braithwaite died in 1994 and my mother Gladys Braithwaite (nee Peach//Pietsch) died the same year. Realizing that I knew nothing about any of my Ancesters from England and Germany. I am now researching my mothers family, Fritsch, Pietsch, families, who migrated to Australia in the 1800's from Germany. As I research, I find more and more families being added all the time, so, there could be some one you are looking for too! I am always happy to hear from people who can add to our family history. "NEW ADDITIONS" I Will be adding new information as I can., I try to verify all my information, but, that can difficult some times due to expense and time etc. Most of my records in the database are my blood relations, while some are related by marriage or we have cousins in common. --------------------------------------------------------------------- My Skype name: Bob.Braithwaite74 If any one decides to contatact me via Skype, Please mention Family History in your message so I will know it is a genuine call.

If there is living relation who may think is of interest, please contact me for further information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SURNAMES: Many surname have spelling variations. Tracking back through historical records will often provide evidence of names evolution. Name were frequently changed with the arrival in to Australia them easer to spell or pronounce. Many German names were angliczed. Typically the names adopted in this databaseis that recorded in birth or christinening records. Hoewever, exceptions to this rule have been made when it is clear that errors have been made, in a few cases, simply so as to keep families together in the index. In this case the name from the birth/christening will sometimes be shown in the birth/christening information. Where a place , town or city is shown as a place of birth or death, may infact be the place where the birth or death was registered. You should also check these sources of data where indicated if publishing it in anyway. ((I am still in the process of putting in more sources)) I can offer no guarantees as to the sccuracy of information on this site.
