Position:Home>Genealogy> Any information on Julia Sopha (married name)?Question:Hello :) I'm working on genealogy research right now and am unable to find any more information on my great-grandmother. I'm going through the 1930s census, page by page, but haven't found anything yet. If anyone knows anything or would be kind enough to use a paid site they have a subscription to, I would appreciate it! Here are her details: Julia Sopha (maiden name *possibly* Albert) Born: January 29, 1903 in Germany Died: June 25, 1968 in Columbus, Ohio (Franklin County) Married Arthur Sopha, uncertain of the year I am also uncertain what year she came over from Germany. She had one daughter in 1928, Helen Lucille who is still alive, and one son, Robert, who died less than a year old in 1926. If you need anything else, I would be happy to help! Thank you!!!

Here's the 1930 census on her: 1930 United States Federal Census about Julia Sopha Name: Julia Sopha Home in 1930: Columbus, Franklin, Ohio Age: 26 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1904 Relation to Head of House: Wife Spouse's Name: Arthur Occupation: Age at first marriage: Household Members: Name Age Arthur Sopha 26 Julia Sopha 26 Helen Lucile Sopha 1 6/12 Albert Ludwick 23 She was born in Bavaria and came over in 1923. She married about 1925/26 at the age of 22. To pull it up, it's in Columbus, Franklin OH, ED: 20-46 Ward 6, Block 98, page 20B I checked immigration records. There's nothing in the entire 20th century for a Julia Albert (nor any "sound alike" spelling) born within 2 years of 1903. BUT...it's probable that you can find the information you need by pulling her marriage license in Franklin Co. You've got an good estimate of the date of marriage and the name of the groom and first name of the bride. With that, you shouldn't have a problem getting a copy of both the marriage license and the marriage license application from the Clerk's office in Franklin Co. Once you have the maiden name from the marriage license, drop me a note and I'll help you get her INS documents so that you can find out who here parents were and which town she was born in...as well as any family members who also came over. It's not hard to get the docs once you have the name. If you would like to email me through my profile I will send you the image for the 1930 USA census, it says she entered the USA, in 1923. The census return says that Arthur's family and himself were born in Germany and Julia's family including herself were born in Bavaria. They married at age 22 years and they had a daughter Helen Lucille who was registered on the census return. There was also a brother-in-law on the form Ludwick Albert, so I would presume that her maiden name was Albert, Ludwick would have been recorded as brother-in-law as Albert was the head of the household and therefore it would be their relationship that was recorded.
