I believe that the recently added parents Myklas and Elizbeta are an error. the village does not match and there are additional siblings that don't match family records.

As part of the Lithuanian Heritage Project team, I entered Joseph Laskauskas marriage record at Holy Cross Church. My great Uncle Rev. Joseph Cuzauskas was the celebrant at Holy Cross Church in Chicago. Church records show Joseph's father was John and his mother Domitilla Beitas

I think there must be two Joseph Lazdauskas, maybe they are related somehow though his brother that stayed behind in lithuania. my grandfather lived and was married in Philadelphia to Matilda Stakausas. He spelled his name as Lazdauskis when in the US and only moved to Chicago very late in his life. I appreciate all the work the Lithuanian Heritage Project does and hope to help contribute.

I added Joseph Lazdauskis as part of the Naturalization Project. I had no input on Joseph's parents. Naturalization record only listed his wife Matilda and his 3 children.

The additional set of parents came from a merge. Earlier today, Stanley K MICAL the manager of the profile that was merged into Joseph, removed the other set of parents. Does Joseph Victor Lazdauskis look correct to everyone now? If so, I will tag the parents in the birth document so others can find the documentation more easily.

This looks correct now to me. Curious if the other joseph is related somewhere further back.

I have now tagged Joseph and his parents and identified them in the birth record. I also added his birth village name (Aukštašlynis), moved Raseiniai to his baptism place and spruced up the profile in general.

If you research back a few more generations in the Raseiniai parish church records, you may be able to connect the families. I see a few books online for that parish and there may be even more records under the deanery.
