All
Kosbab families living in the United Kingdom (England) except for one are direct descendents of
Otto Kosbab. Otto (Henry Franzt) Kosbab and his young bride Louise (Huenchen)
emigrated to Middlesex, England some time around 1877. They had 6
children including the eldest, my grandfather Henry Kosbab. Henry
Kosbab married Maud Mary (Westlake) and together they had 10 children
including my father George
Albert Kosbab.
It
is Carol Haley who
is responsible for the bulk of the research you see on this web
site. I was fortunate enough to meet Carol through my Kosbab
research not realising she was my cousin.
The
old Kosbab Family Tree was hosted by Family Tree Maker. (It is still
on the web site at the address below) My cousin Loren
Kosbab very kindly passed on her copy of the software to me, which now
formulates the new Family Tree hosted on our own Ripe Fruit server.

stuck in a drawer until....

Comments:
Great Site - one hardly knows where to begin. Will spend some time
browsing and hopefully find a lost rellie. I have came to the stage in my
research where there blank walls in every direction. KOSBAB
and HINCHEN from Germany - so they said. Westlake
from Devon, but possibly from Cornwall, Hodgers and Vincent
from Cornwall, but possibly lived in Devon at some time, and so it goes
on. Bertoli and Stafanini from Italy and Bulot from France. Should any of
these names ring a bell, I'd love to hear from you. Now I'm off to browse.
