I am searching for my sister-in-laws grandfathers family. His name was George W. Balon he was born 9 Feb. 1875 in Murany/Muran. According to his Declaration of Intention dated 6 May 1939 his birth name was Gyuro Balon and entered the US at New York 23 Sept. 1913 and resided in Johnstown, PA. He married Rosie (Vrbyar/Vrbjar) 5 April 1910 in Murany. His parents are listed as George and Susan Balon on his obit. On George's brothers obit, Martin Balon, his parents are listed as George and Suzanna Frisnak Balon. I found this last pair listed on familysearch.com, Georgius born 19 Apr. 1825 in Horakov, Tri???? (sorry can't read my own writing) Brno, Czech.I also found Guro Balon b. 18 April 1877 in Murany dated 12 June 1924, his wife is also listed as Rosie also born in Muran. He arrived in New York about 12 June 1911. A Frank Balon b. 4 Oct. 1876 in Swand?vinias, Poland, Russia. He married a Teresa. He declared his intention on 21 Sept 1906. He lived in Patton, Cambria Co., PA.
I beleve these last two are brothers of my George W. but cannot find any common thread.
Any info or lead will be greatly appreciated
