I have all kinds of information on your family. Ella Edith Besanko's( spelled many different ways) parents were William John Besanko & Emma J.Potter (Emmie)
William was B/chr about 1 Jun 1853 also listed as 1 June 1861( may be a transcription error) census has his birthplace as Virginia & another time Ohio. His occupation was farmer.
There is some question as to if he married Mary E Potter 1st she was born 1859 & died 1877.
He then married her sister Emma 25 apr 1880 ar Bear Creek, Adair Co., MO
Emma was born abt 1862 in Polk Twp, Adair Co., MO
She was the daughter of James Peter Potter.

I received a memo several years ago that was copied out of the Potter Bible. Mary is listed in this bible married to
Besanks
Ella Edith Besanko is listed born 1881

William John married a 3rd time to Ivy Nora Sallade on 20 apr 1909.

William is listed in the 1900 census as Widowed, so Emma has died some time between 1881 & 1900. By 1910 Ella is married to Seth Neff.

I have this family back tothe 1600's

I have copy of census records, marriage cert. on this Besanko family

The case of the State against Dixon for pounding Besanco was disposed of Monday. Dixon being fined $5 and costs, besides having to go to jail for thirty days. This will give him time to cool off.

A Row.

Yesterday Robert Dixon who owns the Besanco coal bank, twelve miles north of town, made an assault upon Alec Besanco, who is a son of Dixon's wife by her first husband and beat him up pretty badly. Young Besanco has been ill for many months, and can only walk by the aid of crutches. When Dixon attacked Besanco his wife attacked him, and times were quite lively for a while. An elder brother of Besanco's who was at work in the mine came out and Dixon drew a gun on him and fired, but it went off in the air. Alec. had two fingers broken and was otherwise bruised. A messenger came here at once for a doctor and an officer. Cause, whisky and the d--l.

Hi

Info on Besanko family, they are from Viking stock (Nordic) most are blond, blue/green/grey eyes and stocky. I dont know any info on those you asked about I can tell you about Cyril Moyle Besanko , a highly decorated soldier in WW2, he survived Gallopili & the Somme. you can
also read the war diary of the 4th Battalion, particularly around the dates he received honours for: http://www.awm.gov.au/collection/war_diaries/first_world_war.... He is mentioned in the Official History of Australia in the War of 1914-1918 on p.533 here: http://www.awm.gov.au/cms_images/histories/3/chapters/18.pdf.

Hey....

I'm not sure if anyone can help me tracing back some of my family history or not?? I have found relatives back on my mothers side of the family with the surname 'Besanka' are these people the same that you speak of??
My tree as it looks at the moment shows Sarah Ann Besanka 1826 who married James Stone. So far I have peiced together that Sarahs parents were John Besanka 1801, who married a Mary. these connections were made using logical guesses but they seem to fit. Does anyone know of these people or can anyone offer any more information that might help me track where they came from and perhaps why?
Many thanks
Alex Taylor :)

Hi
FYI -look into the Australian National Archives website -mappingouranzacs.naa.gov.au. you will find details of Cyril Benjamin Moyle Besanko war service history. The Besanko Family originated from Corwall England and decendants arrived in South Australia around 1860? -The furthest i have been about to research is 1716 -William Besanko was born & married Elizabeth Kemp on May 16 1741 at Wendron Cornwall and had a Son named William born 1748(assumed) Hope this helps.

Re: Anna Olson-Bosanko

Tidal Zone — 2007-05-26 01:22:42Z

Sorry no research in that area. But I was told that the Halverson's that homesteaded across from the Ole Olson homestead in Glasco, KS were distant relatives but I never met them when I was little.
I also saw Leve's name listed as Liv, I wrote to my grandmother once and she told me her name was Leve.

Re: Anna Olson-Bosanko

cacton196 — 2007-05-08 05:00:35Z

Saw your posting about Gilbert Olson and Leve Halverson. I think Leve Halverson and my great great grandfather, Erick Halverson, were brother and sister. I had her name as Liv. Just saw the Bosanko name today in the Bennington Twp, Kansas census. Am told there were other brothers too - Ole, Halsteen, and Tollev - also who came to Dodgeville, along with their parents. I know nothing about where the brothers went. Have done any research in this area?

Hello! I am a Besanko in the USA. My father was Frederick Besanko. My father's parents were Charles and Emma Besanko who, I believe, may have migrated from the UK to the USA sometime in the early 20th Century. My father's brothers were Richard and David, both still living in the USA.

benqa — 2003-03-28 10:33:45Z

I am researching my late Grandmothers tree. Her name was Mary Ethel Worn (nee Besanko), her father was Louis(Lewis) Besanko b: 1862 in Sithney, his parents were John Besanko (b 1819 d 1900) from Sithney who married Buritta Manallack, and John's parents were Thomas Bosanko b 1788 Sithney married Margaret Pascoe.

So little is known of our family I would appreciate any information.

Thank you are regards from Aust.
