Welcome to the Capitan Home Page

I'm looking to find missing pieces of my family History.

My great grand parents are John and Cristina Capitan from Arad, Nadlac Romania. They had a daughter Zena Capitan(Russ).

Capitans

We know John immigrated to the United States in 1908 moving to Dearborn Michigan. Cristina and Zena came over around 1912 also settling in Dearborn Michigan.

We know based upon letters that they wrote to family still in Nadlac, Jud. Arad Romania.

These People are Laras Curtician or Curtician Laras, Valirie Resadean, Ardelean Teodor or Ardalean Todor.

The letters are always labled as Jud. Arad, Nadlac N1062 Or 1636.

Resadean

I believe that Valirie Resadean is a great aunt of mine and Cousin to Zena Capitan. They wrote very often, and Valirie seemed to have come from some money as she traveled around Europe.

Las tknow Address is Jud. Arad, Romania.
