Comment: Udut connections

My response to a question from another Udut that looked me up on Facebook (boy, I really need to use Facebook more - everybody else is!!)

Well, a handful of Udut's came to reside in St Claire, Pennsylvania (I think that's where) in the early 20th century.

They split up into three last names, due to a fight among 5 or six siblings -- Udut, Udet and Udit.

There's Udut's in New Jersey (where I'm from), Florida, Pennsylvania, Arizona that I know of.

They came over from somewhere in Belarus, or the Carpathian Mountains or something like that. When investigating my 'roots' about 13 years ago, I joined up with a Carpatho-Rusyn Orthodox Church and one of the little ol' ladies with the thick accent heard my last name and told me a story of a family of Udut's from her village that moved to America when she was about 5 years old. I think Udut was a big sheriff in town which is why she knew about it. She was almost 100 years old so it fit.

I know there are a lot of Michael Udut's around (my brother is one of them) - there's maybe 5 living Michael Uduts.

I tihnk one of the ancester's names was Barbara Udut or Anne Udut.

At Ellis Island there is a memorial to a Udut that one of my father's Udut uncles put there. You can see it on the Ellis Island page.

That's all I can think of off of the top of my head. Oh, and there is a Udut i've seen online from Australia.
