Well, you know a good deal more about the Lithuanian connection than I do. My grandfather's name was John, he had two sons Joseph and Richard and my mother Josephine. he lived most of his life in Massachusetts and his last years in Providence RI. Although I can recall him receiving a newspaper in Lithuanian he certainly didn't instill in my mother any great attachment to her Lithuanian heritage. She never learned to speak Lithuanian and I can't recall hearing any foreign language spoken in their home. Do you have any idea whether Bagdonas and Bagdonavicius was a fairly common Lithuanian name? I have a photo of my grandfather as a young father, but I can't seem to attach it to this message. If you send me an email address I send it to you that way.

My grandfather came from Lithuania, near Rokiskis. Bagdon is the root Bagdonas and Bagdonavicius were used in Lithuania. Your army picture reminded me of Msu standout. Ed Bagdon
