I'm researching the Nick Family in Philadelphia, PA, USA, my marenal grandfather's family. My grandmother, Theresa Nick, died this month. She was a Kosman and distantly from Patterson, NJ. My grandfather' family goes back 3 generations in Philadelphia -- Joseph son of Harry son of Joseph. These generations all lived in the Kensington area of Philadelphia. Original Joseph was from Prussia (some say Alsace-Lorraine) and was married to Anna from Switzerland. They had about 10 children. Harry married Anna Butler. He eventually left Anna and lived in one of the South New Jersey shore towns in a rooming house owned by a fat woman. Anna lived with her son, Joseph, after his marriage to Theresa. They had 11 children, of which 9 are living. Does this sound at all familiar to anyone? I'd love to hear from you.

I am connected to the Joseph Nick family. I'd like to share what I have.

Is your great grandfather, Joseph, son of Joseph and Anna Nick from Philadelphia, PA and brother of Bernard, Harry, Frederick, Alphonse, Mary, Anna, Caroline and Catherine c. 1900? This Joseph married sometime after 1920 (at which time he was 36). I then lose track of him. If this sounds right then welcome to the family.

Hi, Barbara. I feel I know you vaguely now thru Jim Nick, Bernard's grandson x Bernard John. I think he's been in touch with you. We might also have a descendant of Bernard's brother, Joseph on this thread and I think I came across someone's tree with descendants of George or Frederick (I have to review). Wow. If this family somehow became fractured a couple of generations ago, seems it's being set right now. My email is mcd2master@msn.com.

My name is Erin. Daughter of Donna Nick. My grandmother was Arlene Nick, married to Alphonse Nick. My great grandparents were Theresa and Joseph Nick
