His wife, my great grandmother, was Helen Plofchan. They had six daughters and one son. My mother has verified some research on her mother's side I have found, but I would love to find out more about my family.

She immigrated thru Ellis Island in July 1922 In coming to America she was sponsored by her aunt and uncle: Erich Wojna, who was born in Austria (now Poland) and his wife Julie. They owned a bakery in New York City. I know her mother was Marie Dolokova, born 4 May 1881, and her grandmother was Frantiska, born 22 June 1842. I am seeking information about her ancestors especially her father. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
