Dear All
Both of my parents were Estonian. I was born in Nottingham, England in 1953. My father and mother were not married. I have been told that my father left England for Canada. His name was Raime Ambleck, (I believe that this is the correct spelling but there could be other variations) sometimes called Raymond. He had a maternal uncle, Johannes Lass. Johannes owned a farm at Chesterton, near Peterborough, England in the late 1970's to 1990's when he sold up and returned to Estonia. Johannes attended my wedding in October 1979 when he told me that Raime had died, (possibly of a heart attack) earlier that year (possibly July). I believe that Raime married someone in Canada and that he had four more daughters. I would like to contact my half sisters so that I can pass their details onto my daughter.
This is all the information I have to go on.
I would be most grateful if any of you could help me trace these relatives, even if it is to give me an email address or website to contact that may give me more information.
As the family I grew up with believed that Estonia would always be oppressed, I was not taught to read or write Estonian, so I can only communicate in English.
Many thanks for taking the time to read this.

Have you ever seen your father`s name written? You must know that estonian pronouncing is different than english.
A is ei in english. Eimblek? One family name I found-this is Ambek. In Estonian church books you can even find your fathers and mothers birth because I think they are old enough. In case they were born in the end of 20ies and and in 30ies they are already not there.

As person who built several family trees in www.geni.com I will recommend.
1.Look at your birth certificat who is the father. When it`s blank so why?
2. Ask from archive in Nottingham how your birth was registred.
3. Raime Ambleck he is not, forget end ck in estonian names.
4. Hes official first name is Raimond, it`s more logical
5. Are you interested who are your grandmothers and grandfathers? You can check Saaga (estonian church books online)

I would suggest joining geni.com. It's a geneology site that MANY Estonians are using to build familly trees. It's free.and it might help you in some small way.
I looked there for Ambleck, but was not able to find anyone by that name.
There were, however, many people named Johannes Lass.
If you know anything more about him (johannes) - birth year, names of his parents, siblings, kids, you may be able to narrow it down to a particular person.
Then contact the "manager" of the profile and perhaps you could figure it out that way.
Good luck!
